Wow that was intense. Very well written. I sat down to read part of it and read it all in one sitting. I didn’t even move from where I was at. I should however actually check the content warnings before I read books.😅😅 One quote that really stuck with me was this
Trauma is like a gift. The shittiest fucking gift in the world. Coal in your motherfucking stocking. But the minute you receive it, it becomes yours. And it’s your responsibility what you do with it. And you can use it as an excuse to destroy your life and destroy the lives of people around you, but you shouldn’t.

Ngl, I feel a little tricked. I sought this book out for its abusive elements, and it was quite enjoyable as such. I love these charming and manipulative characters, complex power dynamics. And there was much to be had. And in the chance that my bird of a feather may one day cross this comment, that like-minded person who has a thing for abusive relationships, I do highly recommend this book for abuse “porn”.

Then the first phase of the book passed and delved into a deeper story that I could not remotely have anticipated. And I could not put it down.

This book is an easy 5 stars from me. Despite my initial expectations, and my disappointment to lose those, I can fully appreciate and cherish the direction the author took.

This is genuinely one of the most difficult to get through books I’ve read, despite having read books with similar triggers/themes. There is something so particularly diabolical and dark sided about gay men taking advantage of other gay men who’ve experienced familial rejection and have little to no support system otherwise. I’d probably never recommend this to someone.

TL;DR: well written book, not fan or queer people traumatizing other queer people for their own pleasure
