This book was ok.  There were definitely frustrating parts where characters acted against their development and either did things that just didn’t fit or didn’t do things that would have solved the problem before it even started.  Clearly attempting to be edgy and twisty but ended up being pretty tropey.

What kind of fu**ed up fu**ery is this?

The "trigger warning" wasn't nearly adequate enough. I skipped literal pages in this book because of it.
