I found this strange little novella entertaining in the extreme. What does that say about me?

This sick book moved me.

It was scary, it was sick, it was heartwarming, and it was weird as fuck.

This is my first reading of bizarro and it won't be the last. Prunty takes a commonly written plot line and makes it his own with interesting plot twists and situations. I will definitely seek out more of his work.

A great book for people who aren't acquainted with the bizarro genre, and for ones who are. It's has the integrity that a mainstream novel strives for with it's characters and yet still brings the mind fuck aesthetics that fans of bizarro have come to expect.

Despite the fact that the author is gorgeous, he is also very talented.
