“‘I saw something here that made me realize that beauty - true beauty - exists on a plane apart from life and death or anything else I used to see as important. That kind of beauty is here on Otter’s island. I wish you could have seen her, too.’” A fun, campy slasher fic. This book has such an off-the-wall concept of what if The Bachelor ran into a lady Sasquatch. It does work however, with clever execution and witty writing. The cycling of perspectives works well to flesh out the characters beyond the 1 dimensional characters you would see on tv to the real life concerns of your identity being exploited for television. However, the letters between Kathy and Maggie are so sweet and touching and a beautiful example of sapphic love. Thank you to Zando Projects and NetGalley for the ARC.
