Who's on the spooky, improbable phone? It's Nick Cutter and Andrew Sullivan, they have some scorching hot takes on patriarchy and masculinity and how traditions seem impossible to end until someone says "wait this is stupid, who is this serving."

An absolutely wild ride from start to finish. That drain scene had me needing to take a breather. Getting nauseated from a book is something I didn't realize was possible, go into this book prepared for some extremely visceral scenes. This was my first read by these two authors and definitely not my last! (But first, I need a little eyebleach to cleanse my brain.)

Thank you Edelweiss for the ARC!

Reads more like a NoSleep/Creepypasta story, but overall an interesting horrific commentary on toxic masculinity
