I don’t even know what to say to adequately praise this book, other than I don’t know why everyone isn’t talking about it. This is a dark, monstrous, beautiful ode to girlhood, feminine rage, and girlish hunger. It feels so rare that a story of this quality is encapsulated in a standalone. I cannot recommend this book enough. It horrified me, ripped me apart, and painfully, tenderly drew me back together. One of my all time favorites.
