Geek Love by Katherine Dunn
5.0

This book is indescribable. Creepy and darkly insightful come to mind but that doesn't quite capture the essence of this terrific and terrible novel. It is depraved and yet there are chords that struck me deeply. These are the passages about children and how they must protect their parents from the mire of childhood thoughts and then Oly's all-encompassing fear once she becomes a parent.

Geek Love will stick with you long after the final page.
