Story3.5 out of 5 stars 157
After a soul-crushing Tinder date, a woman returns to her apartment to cook some squid and seethe. Her eye starts to itch; her memory starts to skip, and she starts to spiral. Offense is an auditory explosion and an exploration of the rash of loneliness...and what happens when the voices inside our heads start to warp.

Disturbingly Beautiful
Reviewed: 08-11-22
A disturbing look into the mind of someone. The thoughts we all have, the fast pace of modern life and the unhinged thoughts it brings with it.
Would recommend 11/10

Sadomasochism. Obsession. Death. A whirlpool of darkness churns at the heart of a macabre ballet between two lonely young women in an internet chat room in the early 2000s - a darkness that threatens to forever transform them once they finally succumb to their most horrific desires. What have you done today to deserve your eyes?

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 24
Flynn is stuck - depressed, recently dumped, and living at his mom’s house. The supermarket was supposed to change all that. An ordinary job and a steady check. Work isn’t work when it’s saving you from yourself. But things aren’t quite as they seem in these aisles. Arriving to work one day to a crime scene, Flynn’s world collapses as the secrets of his tortured mind are revealed. And Flynn doesn’t want to go looking for answers at the supermarket. Because something there seems to be looking for him.

As soon as I discovered my favourite Logic album had a book behind, I didn't wait another second and damn am I happy I didn't. Love this book, it's personal, painful and above all beautiful. They say it's not what you say but how you say it. and Bobby once again stand out as unique.
