I feel like I don't have enough brain cells at the moment to fully articulate what I feel about this book. Every time I thought I understood it something happened that just turned everything on its head. There is just so much to unpack, and this will definitely be living in my mind for a long time. There's a reason why this book is so famous.

I docked a half star for fatphobia. Otherwise, I would highly recommend this one, not that it needs me to recommend it. It's a modern classic, and I completely understand why. It's bananas, and haunting, and confusing, but in the best ways. Please look up TWs before picking it up, but do pick it up if you can!
