i was willing to lose a minor part of the body in exchange for this book. a pinkie toe, or an appendix. something like that.

i didn't have to do that, ultimately, but it would have been worth it.

i could read this author's books about crazy weird damaged people healing and being happy exclusively for the rest of my life and be content.

this was heady and intense and very truly bizarre, and at many points i felt anxious reading it, and it really reminded me why i hate true crime (which is honestly a pro), but all of those ended up being good things. i connected to this story and this protagonist, and this book is very strange and very real and very dark and very fun all at once. while being somewhat less so than the book by this author that i truly love.

but i like all of those things.

bottom line: so weird and that's so good.

(thanks to the publisher for the e-arc)
