This was just too wildly graphic for me to read. I'm sure it is an amazing book (especially judging by reading the reviews of others), but I could not read through the obscenely graphic description of cutting someone's body open. I should have read the book description more closely, so this is all on me and not on the author. I'm so sorry, but still very appreciative of receiving this book from NetGalley and the publisher.

So, I’m not generally a fan of dystopian fiction, and I do tend to avoid smutty horror. That being said, I’m glad I made an exception and pushed through the early chapters of Manhunt. The second half is thrilling and a smart commentary on gender politics in society today. As an added bonus, some TERFs reap what they sow.

What a wild trip this book is! Felker-Martin grabs you from the beginning with a visceral and funny and strange scene that basically sets the tone for the entire book. There's a lot of gore here (zombie kills and eating testicles are just the beginning), a lot of sex, a lot of killer interrogations of safety and identity and a furnace-blast of fury directed at the fucking TERFs who won't let people be themselves.
There are layers on layers here and it's a blast to read while you're at it. Highly recommended.

A great, precious, devastating, angry, brilliant buffet of disturbing and aching moments. I will miss reading this book. It's captivating. Gretchen's got a hold on my heart, Temple of Doom-style, and fuck, does it ever hurt. Few things have, or will—for a long time—come close to what is achieved in this novel. Every post-apocalyptic book, movie, or otherwise was just practice leading up to this. To call it monumental would be underselling it. It's a masterpiece, and no one could have done it better.
