Spoiler

I cannot say I recommend this book. I partly enjoyed listening to its narration, relating to the intense and deeply-rooted anger women experience living in a world that has been systematically created to oppress them in multiple facets, but there were various serious subjects that are mentioned or occur in the book that were handled, in my opinion, quite flippantly. Granted, that flippancy and cynicism was part of the main character's personal traits, but it still felt unsettling to hear such a callous perspective at times. I simply would have preferred that these significant subjects be addressed differently.

jennylo's review

dark lighthearted fast-paced

3.0

Almost a beach read, a very quick and easy read that isn't challenging or complex. I did read it very quickly, not from a huge amount of enjoyment, but from seeing if I guessed the twist correctly (I did, go me). Not an essential read, but again, an easy pallette cleanser if your ok with moderate gore.
