Honestly I found it very relatable. Being a woman can be so infuriating, fitting into teeny tiny boxes and confirming and Nightbitch smashed them wide open. Very entertaining and artistic. I started off feeling sad for her, and resenting children, but the turn around was insane. Raw, a bit freaky and pure. Animalistic motherhood meets artist block. Loved it

very weird writing style

This book was weird, but it really captures some complex moments and feelings about motherhood and loss of identity. 

Det var mycket upp och ner i den här boken för mig. Jag tror att man som mamma/förälder kan förstå många av känslorna som kommer med ett föräldraskap som en person utan barn inte kan. Däremot så kan jag förstå känslan av att slå sig fri, gå emot hur saker "ska" vara, få vara den kvinna man vill. Den tappade mig lite i slutet, jag hade svårt att få det hela att knytas ihop.
