Nothing But Blackened Teeth by Cassandra Khaw
1.0
I was excited for this book’s story, but found all of the characters insufferable, and didn’t like the writing. It was trying really hard to be lyrical, poignant and creepy, but just felt incredibly pretentious. I don’t understand why Lin was even there??? And I couldn’t stand the author talking repeatedly about how hot the characters were - I GET IT. Up until near the end they are described in different ways as *so good looking it hurts*. I ended up finishing this in a day because I really didn’t want to have to pick it up again lol.

Have a Nice Day!: A Tale of Blood and Sweatsocks by Mick Foley
3.5
I enjoyed it more than I expected! Definitely a slow start but towards the end the matches described have me looking them up on YouTube to experience them properly. Who knew I could be interested in pro wrestling!

I didn’t want it to end! I will miss Darius and the characters in his life so much.
