They're humid, prepossessing Homo sapiens with full-sized aortic pumps. That's all I could think of while reading this book. 

I'm a hit or miss kind of person with literary fiction. This one didn't do it for me. Words felt unnecessary and I'm not sure I have much more interest for woman-obsessed-with-woman stories anymore. However, the real-life story that inspired this book sounds fascinating and I'll definitely do more research about it.
