This book was very surreal! It took me a few chapters to get into it but once I was in, I was hooked. The relationships in the book are so complex, as are the characters - a lot of them were ‘love-to-hate’ characters which I enjoy. I’m not sure exactly what happened near the end, but as the whole book was very surreal I didn’t mind the ambiguity - it made sense.

WOW. What an exciting read. I HAVE to discuss with someone because the themes here are so relatable. I’ll be thinking about this for the next few months.

Absolutely bizarre and twisted in the best way. Mona Awad really knows how to write. I don't really know what was going on but I had so much fun.
