Shaking the Trees by Azra Tabassum

1.0

I began this book with low expectations, and it didn't even meet those. I do, however, recommend this book for comedic purposes; it has great (albeit unintentional) punchlines about having somebody to "fuck my body and not my mind". Equally, the cliche of pretty girls wearing red lipstick and chain smoking is there in abundance for anyone who isn't tired of it yet.

In addition to the comedic genius, we have some truly ingenious metaphors. Take for example: "I'm the toothbrush,/and you're the toilet seat/and together we're just right".
I wasn't sure what this meant but I'm assuming it's something meaningful and personal to the author; I'm worried for her. I also particularly enjoyed the complete disregard for grammatical convention.

Truly a special work.
