The gore and sexual violence in this book is very overwhelmed at times and feels like it takes away from the main story sometimes, but overall I liked the story and the last half of it was a rollercoaster and really fun to read. I read the edition with the authors original restored ending, and seeing how it ended, I am very curious to see what the alternate ending was, because the restored ending was nothing short of f***ing crazy, in a good way.
