Kept me on my toes and even though some portions seemed obvious I still enjoyed the twists and turns each chapter took.
I will be definitely picking up the next one in the series.

hocuscrocus's review against another edition
I started the book knowing that this would be a plot point, but I didn't realize there would be a POV description of assault and a regular supporting character who is introduced as a proud serial rapist. No thank you.

itzblancas's review against another edition
I really wanted to read and like this book, but the horrifically misogynist main character/narrator really made this book unbearable. The coup de grace was the introduction and persistence of of Ryūji, a friend of Aksakawa who is a proud rapist.
