Wonderfully playful and queer. Not as many consequences for bad decisions (of which there were many, in the best way) but an enjoyable mycelial read nonetheless.

★★★

There are not nearly enough reimaginings of Frankenstein out there! Not to mention queer ones or even those that really play with the body/biological horror aspect

Two strange queer dudes that have nothing in common, just the fact that they’re both odd. So that gave us this trash book! Thank you.
