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.

- Is there anything more terrifying than reading a horror novel that is fully based in reality? WE HAD TO REMOVE THIS POST is just that: a barely fictionalized story of a group of online content moderators slowly losing their grip.
- The imagery in this book is unsurprisingly horrific, along with all kinds of slurs and nastiness. Pushing through that, though, is part of what makes this novella so great and awful: you're doing the same thing as the characters.
