    without knowing the book my first thought was "the edgy Rockstar game from 2003? kind of a weird choice"

      Same, at first I thought: damn I guess it is trans rights to kill people with plastic bags

        Honestly not too far from the point of the novel, but also like compound bows, hunting rifles, their hands etc

    Unlimited trauma from fiction upon the audiences of whatever streaming platform this ends up on btw.

    I still cry when I think about the ending, even just the last lines before Sapphos poem. Like Im tearing up rn, as much as I think this is a kick ass thing to happen I think, emotionally, I'd have to tap out

        It's such a hard recommendation, because I did really love it, I did feel it was transformative, I did really engage with it, but also yeah it made me feel bad and very emotional. It's been like 2 years since I've actually read it and I'm still getting teary and it's weird to say "hey, I think you should read this really great splatter horror trans themes book, it'll make you cry!"

    I haven't heard of this but just read the summary and it sounds amazing. I just downloaded the audio book and will probably start it this weekend.
