extremely imaginative and told from such a unique and captivating prose. awad’s writing is atmospheric and deliberate with every word. the book is purposefully pretentious, making a number of critiques on social power dynamics and the pompous elitism of academia. very captivating story sprinkled with the brilliance of a sort of post-feminist creative writer.
<i>We were just these innocent girls in the night trying to make something beautiful.</i>

If the main story is about the author describing her experience with schizophrenia, then it leaves a bad taste in my mouth because while it doesn’t overtly have discriminatory language, it does portray people with schizophrenia as having violent tendencies and being unpredictable which contributes harmfully to the stigma surrounding mental illnessesGraphic: Self harm, Schizophrenia/Psychosis , and Gore
Minor: Mental illness, Ableism, and Suicidal thoughts
