So different than anything I’ve ever read. I loved the short form stories and the lyrical writing. Even though this is not even fiction, let alone horror, some of the things that the author describes are truly horrifying. This is a book that really makes you think about life in a different way, and it’s something I wasn’t expecting from a memoir. Would definitely recommend listening to the audiobook like I did because it’s narrated by the author and it makes it feel very personal.
