abimyers_reads's review against another edition
Was not enjoying this book at all. I have been reading it for 4 months now and I'm only 50% through it. It isn't the typical genre I read and I found it very weird and confusing.
I might re visit this book in the future but not anytime soon.

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!
