I've never read a book like this before. It was so funny, and yet... so intriguing. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys watching and/or making fun of The Bachelor. It was such a good read!

There's some pretty bloody, gruesome stuff. The car accident happens off screen but we get a pretty detailed description of the aftermath. Some characters make homophobic comments, but it doesn't happen too often. There's a mention of abortion. A character is an alcoholic, but they're not a main character. I think the child abuse mention is just the once, but it's off screen and in the past.

This is an entertaining, fast read. It's full of weird humor and shallow characters, poking fun at cultural narcissism in an over-the-top, hilarious way. And when the horror kicks in, hold on, because it gets gruesome and absolutely bonkers for the last 100 pages! This book is silly in all the best ways, and was a lot of fun to read.

5.0

The final four female contestants in a “reality” show vie for the attentions of “the catch,” a smarmy tech millionaire working to rehab his image, while the show’s producer tries to make it through each day despite her alcoholic boss and emotional baggage. Meanwhile, lady Bigfoot and a few of her queer women friends just want everyone to leave them alone on their peaceful island. Most of the characters do not end up getting what they want, but as with any good horror flick, I was cheering for the final girl.
