This novel was very refreshing and I personally loved reading such a depraved novel that teeters between a thriller, fantasy and horror novel! This book is probably best suited to those who can cope with confronting and long passages about violence/sexual assault and content.

I think I might be severely desensitized because this book didn’t gross me out in the way others have described. It certainly has moments where I can see why someone would be disturbed though. This is a medieval slice of life with zero likable characters and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. The audiobook narration by the author was *chefs kiss*

Opening with a demi lovato quote is craaaazy, especially because of what followed. This was so bleak and upsetting and so complicated and complex even though the writing and story were so straight forward. It felt so incredibly haunted even though there was no supernaturalness, just madness.
