My Heart Is a Chainsaw

I don't know how to rate this.

I don't think I've ever read a book like this.

This is trippy because Jade is fully trippy as a character and as a protagonist. Being inside Jade's head was fun, but it was also confusing, I didn't get all the references, but the ones I got made sense and weirdly elated me. Jade is unhinged, delusional, and honest to god and needs lots of therapy and good friends. And for a second there I rooted a lot for her and Letha to get together.
The end left me wanting more, and I know it is purposeful because this is a trilogy, but I still feel a little unsatisfied by this, like something I needed wasn't delivered.

However, the author's acknowledgments were touching for me. Knowing the reason why SGJ decided to write this book and the process, shaped it beautifully, and it's ultimately the reason for my rating.
