Some parts of this were reallly strong, and if you're looking for something gross that's also well-written, this'll do it for you. I think some of the more experimental parts went over my head tbh, but I still somehow couldn't put this one down.

really really good..when the reviews say alison rumfitt is a master of disgust they are so right bc her books affect me more viscerally than any other horror books i’ve read but in such a way that you can’t tear yourself away from them
