anatomy: a love story is a horrifying and brilliant novel.
i’m honestly at a loss for words. i loved the writing style, and i found that it was easy to devour. the main characters, hazel and jack, were fantastic main characters. i loved their strangeness.
the plot was incredibly intriguing. i felt very uneasy while reading, and i’m not sure if the uneasiness came from the graphic descriptions of medical procedures or the general ominous vibe. probably both.
i was able to put the pieces together and guess the ending, but the reveal was no less shocking and horrifying. i don’t think I’ve ever felt such visceral disgust and rage while reading a book. dana schwartz created a terrific villain.
the epilogue left me hollow and wanting more, so the sequel will be my next read.
