Not 100% sure what I just read but I mostly enjoyed it. Themes of the power creativity, the performance of femininity and connection, and the danger of isolation. I didn’t agree with some of the critique of the traditional femininity, but Samantha’s refusal to perform in the final chapter was satisfying.

genuinely so confused. a very good read, intriguing, and hard to put down. It feels like an A24 film as a novel. A24- if you’re reading this, please hit up mona awad.

Completely different to what I expected.  The writing was often brilliant - Femininity has never been so menacing..! - but occasionally I got lost in word soup and found it difficult to engage with. I also found the audiobook narration a little slow - I felt it had much better momentum when I sped it up to 1.5x speed.
