One of my favourite and weirdest books I've read so far in 2020. The Wrong Heaven by @amybonnaffons is funny, weird, strange and beautiful all in one breath. This is the first collection of short story's I have rated 5/5 ⭐s.
I think my favourite of the collection is called horse and it imagines a world where only women can change them selves into horses via a series of simple injections. It's bizzare but absolutely one of the best things I've read.
I also enjoyed the The Wrong Heaven where a young woman is going through the grief of her life not being what she thought it would be and the death of her beloved pet dog, so she buys a light up Virgin Mary and Jesus and they talk to her when she plugs them in.
Highly recommend this. Plus that cover is ace.
