Beautifully written with heartfelt and real characters and a unique story line. I loved the way Gray portrayed real world issues here, and how the issues were treated - not dramatized, but not with kid gloves either. So so so well done.
Beautiful and dark stories with just enough character development to be interesting but no extraneous things bogging them down. Fantastic cultural imagery and lore.
Campy and over the top, but in a way that makes less and less sense as the plot continues. The narrative style was cool but there were too many twists and crazy reveals for it to make sense or feel consistent.
This was incredibly interesting and gloomily beautiful. I loved the unflinching portrayal of tue characters as flawed human beings, but wish there had been a tiny bit more context/exploration of morality.
I love a chaotic/toxic female friendship with a deeply flawed protagonist. This is exactly what I wanted and I enjoyed it immensely. Not necessarily super realistic, but definitely a wild ride.
One of my favorites so far of Morrison's work. Lovely and brutal, as her books generally are, with interesting and unique characters. Left me with a slightly dissatisfied feeling of wanting more
Quirky and likeable, although with a few things that just grated on me a bit. The main character feels realistic but sometimes some other aspects of this didn't, and it pulled me out of the story. But overall really good.
A few parts showed promise, but this book in general was deeply boring, nonsensical, and faux-intellectual. I heard good things about it so I'm deeply disappointed.
So twisty and unexpected, but also full of little discrepancies that pulled me out of the story. I enjoyed the plot but it felt kind of forced and gratuitous
So weird but also kind of brilliant? No one here is honest and everyone isn't what they seem. Fantastic ending twists as well, and really draws you in - rare in something so short.
