The execution of this was everything. 

Was it disgusting and disturbing? Yes. Did I cringe at certain parts near the end? Yes. Was there gore and trauma on every page? Yes. 

But there was also heartbreak and hardship and raw human emotion. Fantastic read that I highly recommend. 

Check those trigger warnings!

I think the aim of this book was to make the reader feel very uncomfortable and it certainly succeeded

3.0

short read. got progressively more disturbing and depraved. Only thing stopping me from a higher rating is how fucked up everything in this is. Not a fan of fetish porn as horror
