Poor Things by Alasdair Gray
3.5
adventurous challenging dark funny mysterious reflective sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

someone on the cover described this book as a booby trapped frankenstein and I completely agree. good, fascinating and disgusting book told through many characters perspectives ranging from hilarious to sick. 
I read this because I really enjoyed the movie - I would say the movie is more worth your time overall, but this was still worth reading and I loved the diagrams and illustrations. weird ass shit!
