The concept of this book is very intriguing, but the execution sadly was flat. Even then, I was only interested in Vince's arc and when the timeline switched to other characters, I just didn't wanna continue. Everything was too rushed and too on the nose.

This book is bananas and I definitely wouldn't classify it as romantic in any way. First, the positives:
- The author's writing style is quick and easy to read.
- The worldbuilding is decent, though I'd say it's a rather optimistic view of the future as it envisions the world as basically the same as the present day but with more tech.
And now, the negatives:
- There are multiple storylines throughout the book that never really come together.
- The voices of the characters aren't distinct and they all blur together because of how one dimensional they are.
- Most of the male characters seem like they come straight out of 4Chan.
- For some reason the author is super explicit about women giving oral sex to men but not about men giving oral sex to women. If you're going to write a sexually graphic novel, it's hypocritical to be explicit about one but not the other.
- The amount of dialogue is unnecessary and detracts from the overall story line.
- The book's audience is unclear. It's mostly told from the perspective of immature, sex-obsessed teenagers, but it's way too graphic to be YA.
Overall, if I hadn't been given a free copy in exchange for a review, I wouldn't have bothered to finish reading this and I definitely won't be recommending it to anyone.

I have received this ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review
Holy trigger warnings. I'm not going to lie, but, Bodies: A Romantic Bloodbath definitely has a bunch of them. Other than that, this isn't my first book to introduce clones and such.. but it was definitely the darkest/creepiest one. Which is probably why I devoured this book so freaking quickly. Because of all the darkness within it.
The characters? Well they were entertaining in their own little ways but I definitely cringed at some of the parts. Plus seeing their inner demons was interesting to a point but definitely made me sad in others. I honestly wasn't expecting to go through such an emotional ride when it came to this book. Mostly because I got no warnings of what to expect that would make me feel these emotions.
I will say, that if you can get past all the trigger warnings and find the interesting parts of the book - like all the scientific shit and clones - you could enjoy it somewhat. I also think if I knew what to expect beforehand, well, then I would've been better prepared for what was about to come my way instead of being blindsided.
All I'm going to say is that it's interesting and you might want a bottle of wine open next to you. No glass needed. You're welcome.

I just finished reading this novel and im sitting back and wondering what i just read. I loved the writing and how it flowed but for the life of me couldnt connect to the characters. I felt some parts werent need in this story overall the story was okay. I didnt love not did i hate it.

I wasn’t sure what to expect with this book but it was actually a really great book. The idea that we can create the perfect person is eerie. I highly recommend this one
