“I don't but maybe I will make one! This year almost everything I've read so far has been fucking amazing: I rec Lot by Bryan Washington, The Great Believers by Rebecca Makkai, Fleishman Is In Trouble by Taffy Akner, Exhalation by the GOAT Ted Chiang, Normal People by Sally Rooney”

“These days, in certain corners, it?s something akin to a truism that every woman is a warrior, a badass, a queen. It is, for that reason, a profound relief to meet Hazel, the passive, hapless, magnificently abject protagonist of Alissa Nutting?s deranged new comic novel. I loved Hazel immediately, the way I love drunk women who instigate alarmingly personal conversations in bar bathrooms. She is the rare literary heroine in whose company it would be a pleasure to absolutely wreck my life.”
“The book may surprise readers who wondered, when the sequel was announced, whether Atwood was making a mistake in returning to her earlier work. It seems to have another aim as well: to help us see more clearly the kinds of complicity required for constructing a world like the one she had already imagined, and the world we fear our own might become.”
