Recs if you like Honeysuckle...

Cottagecore, but make it disgusting & horrifying. I feel like CG Drews would like this list

in the first edition of ‘the monstrous-feminine’, barbara creed challenges the dominant representation of women in horror films as victims, arguing that patriarchal ideology constructs women as monstrous because of their sexuality (or lack thereof).

later, creed reinterprets the monstrous-feminine as a being who embraces her body and reclaims her otherness. in line with this contemporary vision, these are books which use horror to redefine notions of ‘womanhood’.

recommendations welcome!

Books with The Last Dinner Party vibe. Specifically their song The scythe. Don't cry,were bound together. Each life runs it's course. I'll see you in the next one. Next time I know you'll call.

Books that give the vibe of Full metal Alchemist

Works inspired by Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein: Or, The Modern Prometheus. The emojis reference Luigi Galvani’s galvanism experiments to make frog legs move in isolation which lead to the concept of “animal electricity” that inspired Shelly’s novel.
