If only all media that advertised itself as fight club could hold a candle to bottoms (2023). 
And maybe it’s because I’m an agnostic raised in a VERY religious household, but I just cannot relate to people who are obsessed with religion in books. Like grow up!! That shit is juvenile. And especially with Virginia. She has a whole cult following her and I cannot fathom a single reason other than that she must be hot as fucking balls because literally none of them believe in god but she had them following her around like a goddam messiah and for what? 
To be burned alive in the church of a god you don’t believe in? 
Good luck with that ig
