Mielenkiintoinen, erikoinen kirja, mutta liian ahdistava mun makuuni.

   Really liked it, even thought the fatphobia and ableism made me uncomfortable more than once.
   It is very comedic, with some parts that are dark albeit deeply funny. In the right headspace, it can make you think about a bunch of stuff

I thought it was a thriller at first, now I can't even pinpoint the genre. It surprised me. It was uncomfortable, but not scary. It was interesting and very different from anything I've ever read. I definitely recommend more people to read this.

Entertaining novel with a concept I enjoyed but there was nothing that stood out for me.
