“Here‘s why I‘m afraid of life after death;

… what if there‘s no nicotine gum?”

This set of essays is definitely for the shadows of the darker side of humor. Trigger warning doesn‘t even begin to cover it, and the sass has me laughing in ways I never thought I could. The stories are very different, but this reminds me of reading Running With Scissors the first time.

Today, a friend and I went to a climbing park in the woods and I really pushed myself through it 🙌. I‘m proud of myself and my arms hurt. In the morning and afternoon, I read #MilkFed, which I really enjoyed. The main character is complicated. After years of starving, she finally finds herself & her sexual drive through food.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️,5/5
