A quick read tho, and with interesting (if extremely literary and not at all realistic) prose. Not a strong recommend but I wouldn't chase anyone off it.

The content warning list is, shockingly, probably not exhaustive. But this isn't a splatter-punk book so take it with a grain of salt if you're used to extreme horror. This is not it, in my opinion.tobibi's review against another edition

It's a gripping tale of a toxic relationship gone even more wrong. It could've benefited from being a bit more of a slow burn but it works great as this short novella.
Please check the trigger warnings.
