This has won the award of Most Disgusting Book I've Ever Read and not because of the content warnings I listed above, though the acts themselves are disgusting. Nah, see this book will have you looking at noodles differently.
It doesn't help I was reminded of a time when my mom's new puppy had gotten her shots for deworming and one day after the dog pooped, we could see some of the worms didn't come out her butt completely so my mom had me manually pull them out slowly.
If reading the above freaked you the fuck out, let me tell you it's far more tame than what the book has going on. So, read at your own risk. Hell of a way to start my reading for 2024.
Side note - if you liked the movie Titane, then I suspect you'll like this too.

I still don't know if her work is accessible to cis people but honestly I don't fucking care. We needed her voice from out of the darkness and I will follow her wherever she goes next. Trans books for trans people!
This is also officially the book with the most trigger warnings that I've logged so far. The label "Extreme horror" should be treated with respect and care. Enter at your own risk.
