Weird, quirky, dirty, obsessed are words I'd use to describe Paradise Logic.  Reality Kahn is the greatest water slide commercial actress on the Eastern Seaboard; she is on the ultimate quest of becoming the greatest girlfriend ever. After successfully obtaining her boyfriend Ariel, Reality is dazzled by an ad in her favourite magazine ‘Girlfriend Weekly’, to participate in a drug trial prescribing a pill called ZZZZvx Ultra to become the greatest girlfriend ever.  Usually, before heading to a bookstore, I have a tightly curated list of books I’ve researched. I hardly ever pick up a book that isn't on my tbr. On this particular day, I walked past this gorgeous pink glossy cover; I was ultimately intrigued. It depicts a true insight to the infatuations girls typically experience in their early twenties; the chaotic highs and lows of the classic notion, “we accept the love we think we deserve” but on acid.  This book was truly a trip to read, Sophie’s writing bends from Paradise to what I can only describe as a neon-fuzzed fever dream. It is wild and weird, I feel like the girls who get it, get it. After reading this book, I am in wonder of Sophie’s uniquely original voice within her writing. I want more  5/5 I have also created a Spotify playlist, that I think matches the vibe of the book perfectly.

@YUNGGRANDMA99 I think I read it in almost 24 hours and immediately wanted to reread it. I wanted to recommend it to my friends but it’s such a niche book that I felt hesitant sharing.

I very pathetically and desperately read just about anything promised to appeal for "fans of Gillian Flynn". This is the 1 in 50 that delivers, and not as a rip off or homage, but its own specific dark jewel. Just a riveting and very awful (positive) novel. So rarely does something capture this part of childhood, the very primal and un-socialized us vs. them, me vs. you, jealousy and confused pre-maturity longing and disgust. Crazy!

Got When we lost our heads by heather O’Neil from the library today and its unraveling into this perverse tale of two girls’ friendship that rivals their weird, affectionate hatred for one another. That’s sapphic romance for you !

NIGHT BITCH: A story of psychological and animalistic possession: A midwestern mother/ former artist is burdened by stark and abhorrent expectations of womanhood + motherhood, all while her husband is absent during the week for work; she becomes paranoid she might be turning into a dog. As she tries not to be consumed by these pressures, ‘Nightbitch’ starts to experience dog-like instincts, rage and an insatiable appetite all whilst trying to engage a deeper connection with her 2 year old son. 9.5/10
