A review by alexamidala
Any Man by Amber Tamblyn

5.0

Any Man was a phenomenal book! Definitely the most interesting book I've read so far this year. This novel follows various men who have been sexually assaulted and mutilated by a female serial rapist named Maude. It is disturbing, gruesome, and brutal, but is one of best explorations of rape culture and gender roles that I have ever read. The writing style is lyrical and experimental, and unlike any other novels I've read this year. Any Man will haunt me for some time, but it is such an important story and I am glad it has been told. If the premise intrigues you, I would absolutely recommend this novel, but please check out the trigger warnings before you start reading.
