finished exquisite corpse today anyways. the best parts were certainly the bitchy quips about gay culture but i’m very uncertain what to think about the book as a whole because i thought the author was being critical of the romanticization of like cannibalism and rape and torture and everything edgy tumblrinas think it’s cool to romanticize but toward the end i started feeling like actually maybe that’s not the case and it’s just another brick in that wall? which would actually make more sense in context of the jeffrey dahmer reference at the book’s opening. it was a really uncomfortable read, and regardless of the author’s stance on the above themes there was undeniable weird ass racism. not the type of horror lit i enjoy.
