I thought who’s book was really good and I enjoyed reading it. I thought it would be a little more disturbing and scary based off of tik tok recommendations, but it wasn’t. I did like the journey Nick took and how determined he was in finding Jess and getting them out of there. The most unsettling thing was the idea of the black farm and an eternity of dealing with the pig born and all the horrors that come with that place.

dark tense medium-paced

4.0

This was an entertaining look at a purgatory type of place for those who choose to end their lives. It’s dark fantasy with horror elements, culty vibes, gore, and a quest to find a way out of this poop hole.

This book is definitely not for the faint of heart. I found this to be a really intriguing concept. The descriptions were intense and everything was well done but you definitely should go into this book expecting most horrors that you can imagine.
