The misogyny and detailed descriptions of minors bodies ruined the story

i sort of knew the twist going into the book due to tiktok edits, but i was still in shock in the end. absolutely incredible writing, and i never felt like the plot slowed down too much. the only reason why i can't give it a full 5 stars is i found the characters to be quite annoying at times, but i know it just made for entertaining plots.

A bit of a tough read. The characters aren’t likable, it’s on the slower side, and there’s some tough content to get through.

Went in expecting a lot out of this book. It wasn’t terribly written. Most of it was written well. found the plot predictable. Much of the “twists” were expected and I didn’t much care for any of the characters. I found the book dragged in areas. I almost DNF, but I kept pushing hoping for a surprise twist that I didn’t see coming. Disappointed…..
