tense

4.75
Haunted house, queer characters, political allegories, social issues commentary……… 100% yes! Love the stream of consciousness/poetic prose. This is definitely a heavy book (heed the CWs!!!) but relevant, relatable, and important. I understand this isn’t a book for everyone, but if you like horror, stuff that makes you squirm, and commentary on fascism and capitalism…. You’ll love it. (Only 4.75 bc there were a few typos!!)
Graphic: Transphobia, Racism, Antisemitism, Body horror, Rape, Religious bigotry, Homophobia, Suicide attempt, and Self harm
Moderate: Vomit
Minor: Pedophilia and Excrement
(I am probably missing several CWs)
