Dorothy is the true gore-mand. Never has prose been so simultaneously disgusting and delightful. I wanted to languish in this book longer than I could, like any good meal or raunchy rendezvous. Dorothy experiences character growth, but not an overwhelming amount, nor is the majority of the book centered around obvious growth. The characters, while different in personality and presentation, remain flat-footed from Dorothy’s viewpoint. Never do I feel an ounce of love for her former lovers, nor do I feel anguish at their delectable demises. Dorothy presents a satirical, non-conformative, rather muted radicalism, while remaining consistently informative regarding foodie culture and the subversive desires of cultural caricatures (I.e, the other characters).

I wanted to continue reading for the writing style, but stopped because of the content.
Style Ex) "Apple and wood smoke bit the air" rather than saying the character smelled these scents.
