A review by bourbm9
Kiss of the Spider Woman by Manuel Puig

2.0

I really thought with all of the good reviews and glowing praise that this book received that I would enjoy it a lot more. But to be honest, I was kinda bored. I can see this succeeding as a short story, or a play, but after a while it just feels like it repeats itself over and over. Even when you find out the twist, it’s like a tease of intrigue. And then it falls right back into the same exact pattern. I ended up skimming some pages because the dialogue felt so pointless and repetitive. To those who wish to read this book, I wish you the best of luck. Maybe you won’t be as bored as I was the whole time.

And the footnotes? What were those about? Ended up skipping them entirely because it just seemed like nonsense
