Read for a book club.

A uniquely styled stream-of-consciousness book that carried a strange aura throughout, compelling me to read it to the very end. While the horror elements were certainly intense, as someone who is childfree, I felt that some of the true horror lay in the depiction of motherhood itself and the lack of support from the partner.
