challenging dark fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

the stories themselves are gloriously twisted and dark, reminiscent of Sayaka Murata and Carmen Maria Machado, but the book also contains an essay about the author's real-life experiences of an eating disorder, which hit a little close to home for me personally
