I got about half way through. Then I bailed. I wanted to love this. Drag queens and a murder mystery sounds great. But the writing style was not for me. It is written in the first person and is very disjointed, jumping from one idea to the next. I was very disappointed.
Another 2023 holdover! And just as… disappointing.
I wanted to like this book so much more than I did. I DID like this book. The plot is fun! The story is trippy! All the characters are great! It… just needs to be like 150 pages shorter. If I didn‘t have it on Libby I‘d have never gotten through it.
One hot mess of a novel. Comic book writer Grant Morrison tries to blend horror and fantasy in a story of a drag queen named Luci Labang and her protégé Luda who are working together in a pantomime stage show. With people dying and magic happening, Morrison's attempts to be literary and metaphorical are left in an overwritten, confusing hard to read piece of fiction. Skip this.
