    I love thisssss. This genre is one of my favorites to read, but I can't find many people that talk about them. Thank you for giving these recs!! Love your energy by the way((:

      I’m so glad you enjoyed it! It’s definitely a sub genre that people either love or hate, but I’m with you in the sense that we don’t see them so much in the book community. I’ll always be up for a book with a weird woman haha. Thanks so much for the support 💖

    Great review and great books! I really love that you included popular and not-so-popular once, and I really enjoyed all of them.

    As Good as Dead (third book in The Good Girl’s Guide to Murder series) was so good. Female rage personified!

      You’re welcome! I hope you enjoy them when you read them, I think if you liked bunny you’ll love a lot of these strange reads. Bunny is such a great book !

    Oh, the rage and unhinged behaviour is both appropriate and justified. We love to see it 😎🤌 Got me intrigued about Milk Fed, I think there might be a Melissa Broder stan hidden in me somewhere waiting patiently (or sth) 😜 Read Eileen a couple of month ago, the atmosphere was palpable!! So well written imo. Some of these other ones I’ve still to get to though! Thanks for the run-through, girl 🙌😘

    • @whatraereads

      We have no choice but the Stan the unhinged 💅 would highly recommend the Eileen movie if you haven’t watched it. I think they adapted it so well! 🫶

    I love me my weird girl summer! 🌞🔪😂. I'm really looking forward to reading Bunny and Nightbitch. I've heard so much about them!! I had so much fun with Braithwaite's novel. The audiobook brings Nigeria to liiiife! 🤭
    And yes, I love working class representation!! I'm currently working on a sad girl novel of a woman whose a waitress.
    Also, question, its not about female rage but its definitely weird/sad/haunting girl vibes but have you read Han Kang's The Vegetarian? I'm absolutely in love with the book. ❤

    Looooved Eileen, Nightb*tch, My Sister the Serial Killer and really enjoyed Luster and Diary of a Void. I am now putting Vladimir, Boy Parts, Motherthing and Bunny waaaaay higher up the TBR. Thanking you. Have been bingeing on your videos this past week. Mildly obsessed… in non creepy stalker way 😂 I think you might enjoy My Husband by Maud Ventura.

      So glad you enjoyed a lot of the books I mentioned! I think if you liked them you’ll really be into the others as they have similar themes and characters. Omg don’t, I appreciate this so much 🫶 it means a lot ☺️. Thanks so much for the rec, I’ve seen a few people reading that one so it def peaks my interest *adds to tbr*

      Thank you for the feedback! I’ll keep this in mind in the future for sure. I like to add music to make it more engaging to watch, but I totally get that it can be distracting and I’ll work on that 😊 you’re feedback is actually helpful so thank you 🫶
