Bro what - this plot was so scrambled and Steven was so unwell. Which ya was the point but the plot was crazy and some of the "shock factor" of the gross-ness of this was a little too much. Like I get that's the point but damn, chill.

Yeah, don't read this unless you can handle almost 200 pages of body horror and disgust. I think there was actually something to the story, but obviously that's now what stands out.

I felt like I was reading the writing of a middle school boy trying really hard to be edgy and make you squirm. The bad writing and not so captivating story made me put it down half way through.
