In the Dream House by Carmen Maria Machado

5.0
I thought this was an amazingly beautiful and tough book. It destroyed this narrative that all queer relationships weren't abusive. This is a rare story for me because I never knew that domestic abuse can happen in same sex relationships. In The Dream House was just so powerful and poetically beautiful.
