Nightbitch is hard to describe and maybe even harder to recommend. A fable-esque story filled to the brim with an unrelentingly feral nature, reading Nightbitch is like falling in to a dark, yet revealing dream. Both reflective and imaginative in equal measure, it truly is a whirlwind of a story that begs to be consumed in great chunks and committed to memory. 

For some readers the narration style may be difficult to grapple with, but I believe the structural otherness of this book only serves to enforce the frantic energy of the narrative.
