fav quote: “she liked Harry Styles a few years ago, and now she likes that white-bread, absolutely fucking baguette of a lad from Call Me by Your Name”. This book is p much just unhinged feral woman does unhinged feral things to men that get progessively more unhinged and feral. not sure i got the deeper commentary of it all but it was *interesting* to read ! the tw list gives an indication of the unhingedness at play lmao

Where to begin?! Boy Parts isn’t a ‘typical’ read for me and felt like a whole lot of “minimal plot, all vibes” kind of book and I wasn’t totally mad at it. 

The characters? Awful (for the most part)

Irina? Unreliable, spiraling, and the funniest (but dark) narrator I’ve met in a long time. It’s gross, unrelenting, and (honestly) kind of sad in many ways.

I don’t know if I actually liked this book, but it was a really…fun? interesting? different?…read for me. 

Also, Eddie from Tesco deserved better
