This is honestly like a looking at a car crash. It sucks and it’s hard but for some reason you can’t look away. The writing is shit and the clear misogyny is enraging but I just keep reading it just to see what happens. Honestly, if I wasn’t a fan of the show I wouldn’t even bother.

I mean, if any type of content warning turns you off of a book, don’t read this. So far, only 5 deep in the series and it’s pretty much got everything.

Honestly kind of boring and it’s interesting to meet the governor but he’s a sick man so it’s disturbing to read.
