It's almost as if you shouldn't read hardcore body horror dystopias if people (women) having a bad time is triggering to you.

It's excellent, and I used to consider it my favourite as well. Not so much after reading Gogol and Borges, who I legitimately consider the very GOAT of the medium, but it still ranks highly.
Harlan Ellison has better short stories than that, Lonelyache being my favorite

Imagine if Ellison saw this. I bet he'd have something funny to say. Have you heard his response to when the midget said he 'always' used midget villains and should use the term 'little person.'
>I'm 5'6. I'm a little person. You're a midget!
Why would you use Goodreads though? Every review is either 'GREAT 11/10' or 'as a women I found this novel very boring and difficult, if you like it that's fine it's just my opinion,' or 'I'm gonna say a whole bunch of shit that means nothing for 15 paragraphs because I have no real points and then end it all on a middling rating because I'm so much smarter than you.'

I don't use GR as a social network or as a place for book reviews but rather as a really good way to keep track of my library and book wishlist. I just stumbled upon this, i was not looking for reviews.
