Um, actually... (It's Satire)
You loved Patrick Bateman. You wanted to be Jay Gatsby. You know all the rules about Fight Club. Well, do I have the list for you! Um, actually... is a list of books where the whole point went over people's heads. These novels handed readers a mirror and they wore it as a name badge instead. Always taking recommendations! (p.s. I am begging you to watch Um, Actually on Dropout TV... um, actually please watch anything/everything on Dropout TV)

I love it when women
...are unhinged, lonely, tortured, kooky, crazy, unmoored, yearning, plotting, stalking, monologuing, self-pitying, lost, etc.

The Wonderful World of Weird Girl Lit 🌎
Why read a cozy book, when instead you can feel unsettled while reading of another women’s journey through the horrors of life?
From a slow descent into madness, covering up murder for siblings, accidentally(?) joining a cult, to insurance fraud over taxidermy - this list covers it all!!
