Def one of the most brutal things I’ve ever read. When they gave those trigger warnings they should’ve emphasized the ENTIRE BOOK is the trigger. But somehow I enjoyed it deeply 😂

Read Kings of Chaos cause it gave what this book was supposed to give. The SA is so off putting. I kept reading cause I was hoping she’d grow a backbone and set up their deaths.
