#booked2023 #weirdreview #BNbookchallenge #scaresthepantsoffyou

Super dark, witty and weird, viscerally stomach-churning and a psychological horror of sorts. A cruel mother-in-law from hell with a borderline disorder, haunts a young couple both before and after her suicide…. Brilliant writing and completely unhinged, I haven‘t stopped thinking about it since I finished it….and too many content warnings to mention! And it got me out of my slump!!!

Cinfhen My type of #Weird 🫶🏼 2y

If you‘re still considering books for #Booked2023 for the #weirdreview prompt, maybe consider this book.

Lois is an AI programmer, and she gets a job working with robot arms. Her grandmother was also a Lois and they belonged to a club called “the Lois Club”, in which ALL the members are called Lois. She starts baking sourdough bread after being given a starter, and the loaves HAVE FACES!

Weird and wonderful, I loved it.

JamieArc Perfect! I‘ve been meaning to read this book for a long while AND I needed a book for this prompt! 2y
