Paradise Rot, by Jenny Hval
3.0
not to be a freak but i thought this was going to be way weirder from the way people talk about it - and it should’ve been !
did not enjoy that i was absolutely bashed over the head with the garden of eden/paradise lost metaphor multiple times. i got it the first time u spelled it out to me! in fact i got it from the title! please trust ur readers to not be stupid and to get it by themselvesÂ
i think i did enjoy it overall, just left with a sense of disappointment over what it could have been
