This book was "interesting". However, I legit never knew what was going on, and although the events that transpired were psychotic, like a literal fever dream. I kid you not sometimes I thought this book was just a product of Samantha's stories because in the book it mentions how dark and twisted Samantha's stories are (that was not the case). This book was really hyped so I read it, but I can't really say that I enjoyed my experience reading it. This story had no purpose. Like what was the point of anything that happened?!😭😂

A bitingly satirical evaluation of female friendship and the echo chamber of academic elitism turns into a ‘what-the-f***’ horror-thriller that boggles just as it enthrals.

This is one of those books that I could sit here for hours and try to express my thoughts about it but I just don't know what to say. 
Firstly, there were some quotes and scenes in this book that I really did enjoy, whether they were poetic or completely insane. 
Honestly, I could just describe this book as creepy, crazy and sad (and a bit horny). 
Also, I enjoyed the author's sarcasm for the pretentiousness of some people in the art world. I think that it was done in a very smart way. 
On the other hand, there were some parts in the story where I couldn't understand what was happening, but I understand that this is the author's purpose. 
Overall, this was an interesting read hence why I am giving it 3 stars.
