 Is every girl at least a little gay for their best friend? Middle is a little boring, gets really exciting at about 4/5 through the book. From the tango class onward, I had a feeling about Ava and I was about fifty percent right. If this is what it takes to get an MFA, count me out.

 Crazy-scary-sad is the perfect way to describe this book.  I'm a fan of the prose - the proems. Hate bouquet. Fuck you flower. Mouth sounds.

This book defied all my initial expectations but felt quite disjointed. I wish it flowed more smoothly. I nearly lost interest halfway through when Samantha's (the MC) pity party kind of felt too much. Still, I recommend it just because Mona Awad's writing style is fun to read!

I don’t think I’ve ever been more confused but also know what’s going on at the same time while reading a book.

CW: Ableist language, Romani slur, woman slur, r*pe mentions, animal cruelty and death

This book was confusing and weird--bad weird. Too weird for me. Was it supposed to be horror?  Seemed pretty horrific to me.  A lady on tiktok recommended it, I will not be taking her recommendations again!

I will have to rate this book at a later date. I both hated it and yet was addicted to it. I'm not sure what I just read and need time to digest this book.

This is a brilliant book and I loved it. The first 75 pages were quite slow but once the pace picked up, I couldn’t put it down and finished it in one afternoon.
