Reviews

Outrageous, gritty, smart, fun
*Sunday Times bestselling author of Lessons in Chemistry*

Yoder's voice is precise and funny, pitch-perfect... This is a terrifically alive and imaginative tale... an important contribution to the engagement with motherhood that rightly dominates contemporary feminism.
*Observer*

I've been waiting my whole adult life for a read like this. Nightbitch is truly imaginative, utterly original, brave and brilliant - I devoured it.
*Elaine Feeney, author of AS YOU WERE*

A deliciously untamed satire on mothering and collapsed ambition... Yoder's descriptions of wild self-release are thrilling.
*Financial Times*

Yoder's commentary on the assorted neuroses of modern womanhood is graceful and coolly incisive... She infuses new life into the cold, furry flesh of the monstrous femme.
*Guardian*

For anyone raging at the patriarchy, Nightbitch is a brilliant read.
*Stylist*

Feral, unholy... Nightbitch is an incredible feat.
*Carmen Maria Machado, author of IN THE DREAM HOUSE*

Graceful, funny and unnerving as hell.
*Jenny Offill, author of DEPT. OF SPECULATION and WEATHER*

Joyfully demented... I tore through it. This is going to be massive.
*Lisa McInerney, author of THE RULES OF REVELATION*

I could not love a novel more than Rachel Yoder's Nightbitch. It's such a uniquely brilliant book... magical, dark, and funny.
*Kevin Wilson, author of NOTHING TO SEE HERE*
