the book is so dark and twisted but so brilliantly written at the same time. its the epitome of psychological horror/thriller. how the relationship flows SO FAST from trying to sell a family apple corer TO INCREDIBLY FUCKED UP. it is twisted in the best kind of way. it written in a frenzied burst and it kinda reflects the way how both the characters also become more and more frenzied as thee story progresses. i started reading it AND I COULDNT PUT IT DOWN each page beckons you to read on more as you cant wait to see how this seeming love story quickly accelerates into a horrifying mess of a situation.
Graphic: Animal death, Toxic relationship, Gore, Animal cruelty, Body horror, Child death, and Excrement
