So incredibly good omg.

Reminds me a lot of BR Yeager's Amygdalatropolis I read a few weeks back. Both deal with truth in an internet world through a verisimilitudenous (is that a word?) epistolary framework.

Where Amygdalatropolis deals with a subculture I'm at least tangentially knowledgeable about, The Sluts exists in a realm I know nothing about (which might make sense of why I'm such a big fan of these gay focused transgressive horror novels?)

I fucking loved it. This is my second Dennis Cooper and definitely not my last.
