Stuck On You is a gross, quick little story about an affair gone very wrong — or, to be fair, maybe very right? It's quite an effective parable! Ricardo's wife sends him off on a trip to collect "souvenirs" to resell, and while he's gone, he picks up a hitchhiker offering an alluring payment. Things go very badly for Ricardo, though, and he learns a valuable lesson. This is a very short, steamy, and fairly disgusting read that I had a lot of fun reading, and I'm definitely interesting in checking out more of Jasper Bark's writing in the future. My only complaint is that I wish it had been longer and that we could have explored a certain theme

Spoiler

(the possibility of Ricardo having been affected by some sort of curse of his wife's doing)

a bit further!
