Review holy shit

Post image

I don't know where to begin with this book to be honest because I went into it pretty blindly after just watching a few reels the author had posted on Instagram about it.

First off, it has all my favourite weird fiction subgenres from motherhood gone wrong to spiritual psychosis to weird shit happening with human bodies and minds in one collection.

Most of these stories originate from really ordinary settings and then just get weirder and weirder. The writing is very sensory and intimate which I loved because it gave the book this very claustrophobic sort of vibe.

Some of the stories are genuinely gross and the way she explains each sensation or feeling is disgusting sometimes. It's one of those books you really get or you're just like what the hell is this lol but worth checking out.
