I’ll be thinking about this book for a very long time. Unbelievable and uncompromising. Masterful writing and a story that gripped me totally.

i mean, this obviously isn't the kind of book that you LIKE. it was well-written and engrossing and wildly fucked up and truly devastating. every book review i write lately has essentially been "can men just not" but jesus christ does it ever apply here.

This was a captivating but difficult book to read. It was masterfully written.
