I still don't know what I think about this book...
I enjoy crudeness and darkness in my openly disturbing reads, and the moral critique that can be found within this work is surely interesting, but some of the scenes seemed to be there... just because. Just for the sake of shocking the reader. Most of the scenes, if I'm being honest.
I think overall I still liked it, but it felt weird. Really weird.
And I also do not recommend reading this on the tube lol
