Excuse me while I process my emotions over how this book is everything I've been searching for.
I started listening to the audiobook on a whim too, I'm stunned that I've found a new favourite. I wasn't expecting to fall in love this delightful novel.
A beautiful fever dream, a mess of horrors and adoration and rebellion and art. Poetic in both its prose and its nonlinear storyline that guides us like tree roots through the lives of these queer creatures living in a cruel and delicious world.
And don't get me started on how perfect the narrator is (Max Meyers). AMAZING voice, has to be a theatre kid. I was so engrossed.
Need more of whatever this is. I need it injected into my veins. I already need to re-read it and soak in every word.

(I was really there right where it all began. Didn't see any Strabger entities but maybe I should've been coming back from the pub drunk instead of walking around in the daylight while sober, who knows!)

I'd take a drawing by a 4 year old over an AI cover. I'd take a book written by a 4 year old over a book written to any degree by AI.
Fuck generative AI and its impact on our creativity, our wellbeing, our income, our trust, and our planet.
So sad to see a lot of book covers generated by AI nowadays. I would rather have a random human face on my book cover than these ugly AI covers π Not judging a book by its cover is becoming harder and harder these days.
I honestly would love to hear everyoneβs thought on this as well though.
