Amazing. Truly horrifying but in a way that I wish more people read. It is important to note that there are countless tales of horror that women face daily that go untold. This anthology pulls back the curtain on issues of body dysmorphia, misogyny, gender identity, & sexual identity and examines them through the lens of horror in a way that both frightens and educates.
Moderate: Misogyny, Body shaming, and Ableism
