Very much enjoyed it, although there was something disquieting about it. Hints of yonic themes, which would be unfamiliar and possible discomfort me given my social programming? I suspect so. I am admittedly a robot, there were possibly deep body themes and emotional themes that I am not subtle enough to get. I really enjoyed the story of the man with a beagle for a body. It resonated a lot with me. There were hints of resonance elsewhere, the discomfort and the misshapen and the alienness that so many of the characters had, but yet I could not connect to it for other reasons. As someone who is very much not into bodies and humanity, this book probably has themes of body and humanity that made me uncomfortable. Stories were thin (but they didn't need to be otherwise) but they were good to read over, like a road trip you could probably stand to do again and again but probably will not. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Very Casual is now officially the very worst graphic novel I've ever read for this book club. Or. In my whole life.
I had to finish it tonight since the meet is tomorrow. But, god, that was horrid. I would have stopped twenty pages in if there weren't going to be book club discussion over it with all the peoples. But seriously all I want to say is "This is…horrid. Please never make me read something like this again. My braincells were dying like I was watching Monty Python done through Frank Miller Art. The whole thing makes me want to poke out my eyes." ( )
