Her Body and Other Parties
by Carmen Maria Machado
My Opinion
3 stars
I bought this book when it caught my eye and was surprised to discover that it's been on my Goodreads 'to-read' list since 2017. So it independently peaked my interest at least twice.
The author has a visceral, intense style of writing that pulls the reader in immediately.
I'm rating it in the middle because I thought "Especially Heinous" was a real dud and soooo long but I also acknowledge May has been an especially busy month so I don't have the brainpower to fully absorb or analyze anything I would've read at this moment.
