Witty and funny and creepy and honestly just a great axe-wielding time. I especially love that I had no idea where the story was going for most of the book, and was just along for the ride. One of the blurbs said it was gonna be the weirdest book I read all year. It wasn’t (that award goes to Earthlings by Sayaka Murata without a doubt), but it was definitely very trippy. I think it had kind of similar vibes to the Netflix show Brand New Cherry Flavor. If you, like me, really really wish Carmen Maria Machado would write a full-length novel, then this book is for you.
