did not like it

** spoiler alert ** Just no.

There is a difference between taking artistic license and then there is just flat out distasteful. This is the latter for so many reasons. I don’t even know where to begin.

Between the non-traditional dialogue writing style and vivid descriptions of the morning after pill, miscarriage of her child in the ocean, abortions (picking up blood clots in the toilet and all), I am just flabbergasted. Not to mention the Oedipal relationships with her kids. I don’t understand the love for this book whatsoever.

I would give this book zero stars if I could. Worst book that I have read in a very long time.

Shannon Wow! Once again, I nearly picked this one up because of the title alone. But I will pass! :). Thank you!!


JennyLG Apparently, many people liked this book! I personally did not. You may want to check out some other reviews :)


Jeanette DeSantis I couldn’t agree with you more! AWFUL book!


Elaine Totally agree. Much of this book was cringy, crude, weird, gross


Eileen "Gross" is definitely the right word. The narrator needs to get a life.
