sarahxify 's review for:
Her Body and Other Parties
by Carmen Maria Machado
dark
reflective
slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
Such a mix of stories in this collection, all mostly focused around women's bodies, their ownership, and desire. They were quite surreal at times, but the writing is lovely and visceral, and really puts you into the headspaces of the main characters - which oftentimes was an unsettling experience. Will definitely be picking up other things by Machado in the future
