This book had my stomach churning and my eyes filling with tears at the same time, all whilst making me think how awfully the world deals with pandemics and people who don’t fit into our capitalist ideas of how society should run. There were a lot of metaphors for how chronically ill people are treated, how messed up the government is when it comes to global catastrophes, and honestly that may have been the most sickening thing about this book.
I definitely need to read something lighthearted after this to recover

There’s a line between body-horror and just…gratuitous violence and horror for the “thrill” of it. This book crosses that line. Not a fan. Would not recommend .kneec's review against another edition
