Ohhhhh boyyyyyy.  This was an anticipated release for me, and boy howdy it did not disappoint. I listened to the audiobook, narrated by Sandra Okuboyejo and Angel Pean, and was completely riveted.

This book is brutal. A flawless example of horror that offers the fantastical while remaining rooted strongly in the horror of reality, Delicious Monsters was a creeping, inevitable masterpiece. I fiercely loved all these flawed, complicated, bruised girls, and the ending was  pitch-perfect, even though I ugly cried in my living room finishing the book. 

Sanbury is an absolute hero. The fearlessness with which she handled this subject (I’m including trigger warnings for this one, and she has them listed in the book’s foreword as well) is deserving of the highest praise. I’d go to war for this book.
