This book was really good, it has a very shocking ending. I will say that I didn't particularly love the narrating style, it felt a little gimmicky. I do think the overall plot was excellent and the development of the characters was great. Made me feel queasy after I read it. Check the TWs for sure.

A very triggering read. The content they discuss moderating is somewhat disturbing. Plot contains clear sexual abuse.

This book I mainly enjoyed because it was short with a pretty cover (hence, satisfying). I didn’t like the love interest at all but at least she  was a bit interesting. The minor plot twist at the end was fun! I would recommend this to someone who wants a quick read to get out of a reading slump. Warning: book has brief mentions of lots of disturbing things.

Talk about bad decisions. 

An insightful look at abuse in the digital age. 

This is a startling book, and will not be for everyone. However, the things it says about the depravity of the world, abuse, relationships, and PTSD are important. When does an abuser cross the line? How does an abuser convince themselves what they’re doing is ok? Can trauma justify horrible actions? This story takes unreliable narration to another level. It absolutely left me thinking.
