So yes, hopefully that synopsis puts clear that Stufflebeam's tongue is very firmly in cheek through this rip-roaring novella. From the beginning it felt very much in the mode of Christopher Moore's funny fantasies, with all the saucy queer sexuality and unadulterated gore of your Clive Barker. Our three femme monsters are unapologetically murderous (but hey, a girl's gotta eat/extract the pheromones that maintain their transformation) and unabashedly sapphic, though maybe aren't all quite ready to admit how much they love each other yet. At times I struggled to figure out exactly what the tone was supposed to be, between horror, humor, and heart. but when I realized she was making very obvious and specific movie references, I felt comfortable with the book to an homage to horror film with a pinch of farce. Stufflebeam's humor comes more from character and situation than jokes, and perhaps with the overt nature of the references some more jokes would have helped set the tone. But I really was rooting for Roxanne, Mx. Hyde, and dear sweet Medusa, and hope they have a chance for more adventures in the future.
I was provided a copy of this book to review through LibraryThing's Early Reviewers program.… (mehr)
