Nightbitch is hard to describe and maybe even harder to recommend. A fable-esque story filled to the brim with an unrelentingly feral nature, reading Nightbitch is like falling in to a dark, yet revealing dream. Both reflective and imaginative in equal measure, it truly is a whirlwind of a story that begs to be consumed in great chunks and committed to memory. 

For some readers the narration style may be difficult to grapple with, but I believe the structural otherness of this book only serves to enforce the frantic energy of the narrative.

I should have DNF’d after
she violently murdered her cat.
This book had no business being so boring with how graphic it was. It also had no business being so misogynistic with how “feminist” it claimed it was.
