4.0
A dense slow burn into one of the most grotesque romances to exist in a novella, the twist rewards the reader with a beautifully strange read.
Graphic: Death, Gore, Injury/Injury detail, Infidelity, Body horror, Blood, Grief, Medical trauma, Medical content, and Terminal illness
Moderate: Drug use and Drug abuse
Minor: Alcohol and Alcoholism
Be aware of body horror involving two people merging together, and with body parts falling off.
