Homesick For Another World by Ottessa Moshfegh
DID NOT FINISH: 31%

dnf :( typically adore moshfeghs writing, and im usually ok with her edge-lord sensibilities (to an extent) but even this was too much for me. liberal use of the r slur, heaps of anti-fatness, weird casual racism in ways that didnt really advance the stories. besides these uncomfortable moments, i was mildly bored with a lot of the stories here. some that i read stood out to me, but nothing spectacular enough to make me continue.
