I loved the experience of reading this knowing absolutely nothing beforehand. There’s some questionable content in the middle
like a weird obsession with male characters wanting to either rape or have sex with every woman they encounter or some of the weird parody of feminism done through Lotaria’s character
but even with all of that, I still thought it a worthwhile read with lots of lines that make you truly reflect on things
