⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rouge by Mona Awad This book is an actual fever dream. We bow to Mona Awad and all the ridiculousness that her perfect brain produces. Did I 100% understand what I just read? Not exactly. Did I love it? You KNOW I did. Just go with it. Belle and her mom are both obsessed with all things skincare and have the kind of relationship a therapist would salivate over. When her mom dies mysteriously with some weird links to cult-ish spa, Belle finds herself in the same spot longing for their treatments. Only things are feeling pretty sinister and she’s starting to forget big details about her life. And did I mention there’s jellyfish and roses everywhere? And Tom Cruise?? And by all means, keep staring at the cover like a fool like I did, thinking it might give a clue. 🤦🏼‍♀️ But that imagery! 😍 Awad shines brightest when she’s in the weeds of story making me FEEL all of her luscious descriptions. This story is gorgeous and gross and clammy and slimy and salty and I felt all of these things simultaneously. I need this book to come with a scratch and sniff sticker. Also I gotta give Duolingo a pat on the back because that lil baby owl had me understanding pretty much all the French words sprinkled throughout the book. 👏🏼 If you love Bunny (🙋🏼‍♀️), cool girl lit fic (🙋🏼‍♀️), Moshfegh (🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️), a twisted fairy tale, beauty industry satire, or you have a healthy fear of jelly fish go ahead and grab this one. Thank you to @simonandschuster and @bookclubfavorites for this book! 😘 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #rouge #monaawad #bookrecommendations #bookrecs #bookreview #bookreviewer #bookish #bookaesthetic #bookvibes #booksandplants #plantsandbooks #booksbooksbooks #bibliophile #bookcommunity #bookclubfavoritesinsiders #booknerd #bookworm #booklover #readersofinstagram
