Reading City of Gods and Monsters is like falling down the stairs in slow motion with a bunch of traumatized angels and hot messes. You’re crying, you’re confused, and somehow you’re into it.


Do I recommend it? Yes. Will it heal you? No.

Will it hurt you in a way that feels intentional? Yes.

Do you have any self-respect left by the end? TBD.
