I find the topic of the book very interesting, I like how it explored issues of desensitisation and trauma. I feel it could have been longer to fully explore the topics but I like how it was done.

While the premise of this book was interesting, the story felt incomplete. It had a lot of potential, but it didn't quite live up to it, in my opinion. The ending felt like it came out of nowhere. I would've liked for it to be longer, with more time and space to flesh out the characters.

While there is a lot of content warnings for this book, it’s a lot less graphic than what it seems to be made out to be when I saw reviews. It is primarily an insight on the effects of being desensitized/over-exposed to disturbing media online than about discussing the disturbing media.
