Patricia Wants to Cuddle is perhaps the perfect beach read. It's fun, mysterious, campy, and a little bit scary. As though you were actually watching reality TV, reading this book makes you voyeuristically invested in the exaggerated dynamics of The Catch cast. That in itself is quite an entertaining feat! But then add Bigfoot literally lurking in the background at all times? Next-level amusement.
However, there were two aspects of Patricia Wants to Cuddle that I wish were further explored: queer romance and Patricia herself. I would have loved to have "met" Patricia sooner in the story. Alas, I may just have to continue wondering about her. Was Patricia a villain or just misunderstood??
