Her Body and Other Parties by Carmen Maria Machado
4.25
The Husband Stitch (4.5 Stars)
Folktales meet bodily autonomy
Inventory (3.5 Stars)
The reveal is cool and this made me somber
Mothers (3.5 Stars)
Raising a child through abuse
Especially Heinous (DNF)
This felt very out of place and difficult if you aren't a huge SVU fan
Real Women Have Bodies (5 Stars)
My favorite. Hurt me in my deepest soul
Eight Bites (4.5 Stars)
Having a body is horror
The Resident (5 Stars)
Felt like I was reading Shirley Jackson, which I loved.
"What if you colonize your own mind and when you get inside, the furniture is attached to the ceiling?"
Difficult At Parties (4 Stars)
Really well done, just very hard for me personally to get through
