The writing is overly pretentious, although I realize the character is pretentious. It gets a bit tiring at times, but really keeps you connected to the main character.

However, the more I read the more it kept me interested.

The descriptions of certain events are very graphic and disturbing. But that did make it a good October/Halloween read.

I wouldn’t go out of my way to recommend this, but I also wouldn’t discourage someone from reading it (unless you really can’t read graphic content).

4.0

eu quase larguei em algum momento pelo meio, mas ainda bem que desisti de desistir. a escrita é complexa e eu não entendi metade das palavras lendo em inglês. as descrições são grotescas e eu precisei pular páginas em agonia. do ponto de vista psicológico, não sei o suficiente sobre a psicopatia para dizer o quanto é coerente e o quanto não é. me tocou por ser, no fim, o livro sobre uma amizade, e eu preciso valorizar mais as minhas

Crazy read. Interesting enough to finish, but my eyes glazed over a few times reading this, mainly around the 2/3rd mark. A pretentious main character who loves to talk and meander got pretty boring.

3.0

The last 25% of the book was very gripping and intriguing. Unfortunately most of the book had me checking my progress and seeing if it was over yet. Im usually a sucker for a gruesome murder which this book technically delivers but, the descriptions of literally anything and everything take up most of the book. Its almost repetitive and it took a lot of self control not to skim the book. Plus the amount of times Dorothy was just like "oh yeah this happened anyways back to this food" was annoying as fuck.
