Some books you read to find out what you’re into…some books help you find out what you are not into. Sociopaths and detectives are not a trope I can get behind. It’s so toxic and this man does not have a single redeeming quality. His obsession with pain and fear just grossed me out so it was hard to stay in the story. I just wanted everyone to get away from this main character. I can’t root for a sociopath, much different from a villain or a person who’s been harmed and appears grumpy. But to each their own!
