This book was…strange. It had so many fascinating ideas but a confusing execution. As a huge fan of Frankenstein I still enjoyed it and all of the questions it proposed but I don’t know if I would recommend it.
Also, I know it’s a choice but I hated the lack of quotation marks! Made the reading experience more laborious on top of an already confusing book.

echoing some previeious concerns, it did feel a little off color to a transmasc reader of theis novel but the surrealist experience of finishing the book was evocative enough that I give it some points
