Told as a horror novel, Clark dives into how difficult it is to leave a mark on the world as a woman. Following the internal monologue of a diabolical narcissist on her rampage to make a mark, Clark leaves a heavy imagery underneath on the struggle to break from gender norms as a woman without being as brutal and vicious as the opposite sex. 
A truly wild read. It won’t be for everyone, but I think it’s worth the read.

You know when you read something that is so utterly confusing but also never fails to amaze you at the same time? That is this book for me. The constant battle between wanting to believe that Irina has done the things she says she has and also wanting it all to be in her head is one that remains unsolved right up to the end and yet also I am okay with not knowing the truth?? V weird and yet v intriguing, I was hooked from start to finish!

Read bc BookTok said it gave brat summer vibes. (Eh)
The main character is an insufferable bitch & truly not a good person. Her friends are pathetic and you can’t help but feel bad for them.
Lots of pop culture references and it was very modern. Lots of drugs, alcohol and sex.

The second half of the book was definitely better than the first half. The beginning felt like it was trying very hard to establish the narrator is an unlikeable character. The second half actually introduced some more complicated themes.
