A review by alegzac
Boy Parts by Eliza Clark

dark funny tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

I can only describe this book as: the power of being a woman and getting away with anything, at the same time as never being actually recognized for what you are. 

American Psycho-esque but so much better. The unreliable narrator made me want to start an actual police investigation against Irina.
