DID NOT FINISH: 31%

Am I in a slump or just picking up bad books?

It’s like fifty pages too long but ultimately worth it for how genuinely effective and unsettling it is and while it doesn’t necessarily say anything particularly unique about feminine rage or motherhood or the intersection of those things; it absolutely says something about them in a unique way. Definitely one where you just have to lean into the unhinged premise or else you’ll absolutely hate it.

“An entire ruined kingdom as manifestation for one woman’s rage. A crushed and crumbling room. Anything to put what she felt outside her own body, for she had borne it long enough and did not want it anymore.”

this was entertaining enough it just felt kind of random while reading? it felt jumpy and the book was weird but she went for it

This is what Sabrina Carpenter's Man's Best Friend should have been about.
