Unreliable narrator calls people “fatso” in her head and kills her dog . You kind of know she’s unreliable from the start, and there’s never any forward progress regarding the body. Well written, though, and I liked how her cast of characters came from the radio program. She really did not have to kill her dog , though.
Graphic: Fatphobia and Animal death
Moderate: Abortion
Minor: Cancer
