This was the wrestling and OnlyFans crossover I didn’t know I needed - with the best description of TikTok I’ve ever read thrown in the mix too! This was my first Rufi Thorpe, and I won’t be stopping here. Margo was so relatable and empathetic, and I learned a lot about the ‘kayfabe’ of wrestling - which was really timely, as I’ve just seen Iron Claw in the cinema, which has gotten me surprisingly interested in this sport-entertainment!
I also loved the idea of the cake with the hidden pump inside…

So excited for this one especially since it is going to be tuned into a series. I love David E Kelley’s work and I think Nicole Kidman will do a great job with this role. I look forward to,sharing my full thoughts an$ review on this one. I have been experiencing some health issues and unfortunately got on bit behind on reviews but I am slowly catching up and so many of us are hurting financially at the moment so I’m sure it will resonate with people.

‘What kind of truth would require this many lies to tell?’

I absolutely tore through this book, I didn’t want to put it down because I felt such a connection to the characters that I wanted to see what would happen next. I especially liked the relationship between Margo and her father. I appreciated the comparison the author drew between pro-wrestling and sex work, examining what it means for a body to be commodified and how society treats those whose bodies are consumed for entertainment.

Overall, I found the story very moving and appreciated some of the more meta bits that looked at writing and storytelling itself. There was some really stunning language and I found myself highlighting lots of passages. The last line in particular blew me away.
