Overall, trying to be as objective as possible, I think it was mediocre, edging on bad. Could do without the Try-Hard edginess, but I think there actually *was* a decent, intriguing love story hidden inside the shock value. I would not recommend this book to any other living soul.

In short; it's about a security guard in a hospital who likes to have smexy times with the dead bodies in the morgue and a maternity doctor who likes to snack on dead babies while having fun with herself. They meet and then science what combining their "hobbies" would look like. And the book ends in gore.
It's very graphically, descriptively written with the sole purpose of making it as twisted and gross as the author is capable of.
DO NOT RECOMMEND READING IT

Rape is glorified in the bookchloseencounter's review against another edition
It seems like reviews are either “this is the worst book I ever read, I love it.” or “this is the worst book I ever read, I hate it”, but all the good reviews have no commentary about the actual substance of the book, they’re all just “well that was gross.” I understand feeling as if a book must be good because it gave you a visceral reaction but l personally need a little bit of substance with my violence.

This book is not for everyone, it contains very disturbing and dark themes, and the descriptions are graphic and disgusting. I read it because it was recommended on a one-sit read TikTok I came across, with no warnings, and saw everyone in the comments talking about how this book shouldn't be recommended so casually which I agree with- do not recommend this book to someone without at least letting them know they should look up the TW's for it.
Point us I got curious and since I don't mind fucked up fictional content, decided to check it out.
As I said, I don't mind fucked up fictional content....when it's well-written and executed properly. But this is written in a way where the purpose is just to shock the audience, and that's not the type of horror I like; I am giving it 1 1/4 stars because it was slightly interesting towards the end and I liked the final twist.
Not a book I would recommend. Not a book I would read again.
