I know I read the TW but holy moly did this get darker than I ever thought. I'm sobbing and crying but damn, my tearfilled eyes will not rest tonight, I need book 3 and I need it now!

Definitely not for the faint of heart is all I have to say. There were very horrible and disgusting scene where I just had to put my kindle down for a second and gather myself. But I have to say again there are content and trigger warnings at the beginning of the book. Read at your own risk ;). I did not enjoy it as much as the first one but I’m looking forward to the third to see how it continues.

Careful this is the scene that had me rethink it all.

Zia, Michele’s “lover” gets pregnant but he forced her to get an abortion and after when they’re back at his place they get trash to eat and he serves her the aborted baby as soup. She detect a half developed leg in the bowl.
