EXTREME HORROR BOOK NOT FOR UNDER 18S!!!
What a messed up little book this is. Angel is tell an escort stories whilst doing sexual things to her . Each story is horrid but the intrigue keeps you wanting more. A story of drugs, abortion, dismemberment, and other very grotesque happenings. Not to be read if queezy themes are a no

I think my reaction is just “bro, what.” 

Didn’t love it, but didn’t hate it either, hard to rate. Compelling enough to see it through to the end, and without the buildup it would’ve been ridiculous. Shockingly not the grossest thing I’ve ever read. The kind of book you read just to actually know for yourself what’s in it for morbid curiosity. Now I do know. Oh well. 

I do feel confident I may look at more “hardcore” horror novels that spark my curiosity though since I handled this one pretty well.

It’s a shock novella, but if you must be warned

Spoiler

genital mutilation and “Re birthing”/ unbirthing play a significant role

This was a wild ride. Really gripping storytelling with some very interesting characters. 

Check trigger warnings before reading.
