Irina likes to take photos of non conventionally pretty boys. Her photos are provocative, and she has a kink that involves female rage. I loved this book. Irina was unhinged and you couldn’t tell her anything about herself. A baddie with a drug problem, and her passion for choking.

This was a wild ride. Eliza Clark does unsettling really well, the book started off fairly normal but things took a turn for the “wtf did I just read” pretty quickly. All the characters are pretty terrible, but particularly Irina, whose descent into madness is depicted really well. I thought the ending was very abrupt, though? Like there wasn’t really any resolution and because of that I wasn’t surprised to learn that this was originally meant to be a short story. I’m going to need 2-3 business days to recover from reading this.

Was in the mood for something truly sickening, and this fit the bill, although it wasn't quite as vile as I was expecting based on some reviews on reddit. Irina's messiness and spiraling, and denial of her own trauma, and her desire to hurt herself, and then eventually others - all of it was deeply unsettling. Even her less directly harmful behavior is exposed and embarrassing. You will absolutely cringe your way through this. And the unhinged texts she'd send to people to manipulate them were so well written (absolutely horrific behavior!). Giving this a 4 because it did drag a bit in the middle, and I was also expecting it to escalate a lot sooner, so the pacing felt a little off.

Even if I felt uncomfortable reading some of this, it left me trying to grasp reality again and I don’t think I will ever forget it. A book that can properly disgust, anger and shock or invoke any other real feelings is deserving of my 5 stars
