Sexing The Cherry by Jeanette Winterson
3.5

Reading this book was a wild ride from start to finish. I really loved the dark fairy-tale parts (especially the 12 dancing princesses re-telling) and I also was highly entertained by every single Dog-Woman passage, (that woman is a force to reckoned with and her perspective was like nothing I have ever read before). I also really liked Winterson's writing style in general, her prose was striking and effective. Even though I don't know if I have fully grasped the meaning of the work as a whole yet, I enjoyed reading it and there are so many passages and quotes that I know will stick with me for a long time.
