As with the first volume, it's a dark comedy, albeit the darkness is now ramped up above the comedy with the secondary lead having grown up and been corrupted. It's classified as a romance, but in practice it doesn't read like one. Instead, it's something of a (still comedically inclined) suspense novel, with the love interest playing the role of antagonist. Overall I think it's less fun than the first, but just as captivating.
Graphic: Body horror, Toxic relationship, and Violence
Moderate: Murder and Gaslighting
