The Surface Breaks by Louise O'Neill

4.0

4.5!
yoooooooooooooooo this is the book I needed to read today. Fuck this country and fuck the men running it. And WHO KNEW that a retelling of the OG little mermaid was gonna be the thing to get me through the day. Truly cathartic.

“I will grow nails to claws and shave my teeth to blades. I will flay the skin from the bones of men. I will tear them apart and I will eat them raw. Oh, I will set them on fire and devour their ashes whole.”

I FEEL THAT. I NEEDED THAT. WOMEN ARE BADASS BITCHES AND WE ARE POWERFUL AS FUCK.

I feel so much better now.
