A review by emmajo_val
Tender Is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica

dark sad tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

Fast read, I don’t think I’ll ever read it again but I appreciate the message and the craft it took to write it. VERY descriptive and gross book.
