laisai's review against another edition
I got about 1/3 of the way through the book, trying very hard to see if it would get better. Perhaps it did in the end, but it was too dark and painful for me to read personally, though the world-building and especially the way the author wrote about gender was very, very interesting. In the end, there were just too many difficult, graphic topics for me to handle. Wish I would have known before starting that this is typical for Kameron Hurley's writing. The back-cover summary did not prepare me for the contents, unfortunately.
Graphic: Rape, Sexual assault, Sexual violence, Violence, and Cannibalism
Moderate: Death and Gore
