honestly i felt sick reading this. it’s very, very graphic. i might do a more in depth review for anyone thinking about reading this just because of how many content warnings this book has. the writing is immaculate and wonderfully done, but so wonderfully done that everything described and done just leaves a sour taste in your mouth and a turning stomach in its wake. all though i cannot say i enjoyed this book because of this, i do think it was a very well written and disturbing book.
