Book Review: Victorian Psycho by Virginia Feito

Victorian Psycho by Virginia Feito is the kind of Gothic where every single person is terrible, and everything is terrible, and every scene is described with the most terrible words.

Book Review: Model Home by Rivers Solomon

This is a well-written, well-paced, thought-provoking book which is also probably the most disturbing and joyless thing I’ve read all year.
