You should read this for the prose. It's humorous, gritty, dark, animalistic, fairytale-like; it feels like the true successor to the ominous and floral imagination of writers like Angela Carter. But besides that, I felt it didn't go all-out with its extremely promising concept. I don't say this as a bad thing, because Mona Awad really feels like the type of writer to be so self-aware. I didn't get much out of her ideas here as much as I wanted, with as much as I trusted her to deliver.

Knowing what this book is now, it could have done so much more.

4.0

i kind of loved how insane this was. i found myself jumping from theory to theory to try to make sense of something, but then i would immediately be hit with another layer to the story. i already knew to expect chaos going into this book, but i was pleasantly surprised with the overarching metaphors and meta-ness of the journey. i would highly recommend this if you’re open to an unconventional mean girls-meets-dark-academia story that leaves you wondering if it was all just delusion.
