Strongly recommended for anyone who loves metal, is a feminist, who feels crushed under the weight of forces beyond their control, or who has never liked anyone telling them what to do
Graphic: Gore
Moderate: Sexual assault

Think this is my favourite Grady Hendrix book so far. I like that his main characters tend to be unlikeable, believable older women. I also really enjoyed the gore scene because my face was like 😮 while listening to it happen.

Graphic: Gore and Confinement
Genuinely fascinating, structurally and emotionally. Maybe very slightly too many characters but I don't know who I'd cut so that's not helpful of me.
