It’s a very very very dark book. I skipped many of the chapters/paragraphs that had dark themes descriptions.

dmackreads's review against another edition

challenging dark mysterious tense fast-paced

3.5

I’m not really sure what I expected out of this book but I definitely expected it to be more wrapped around the main characters and their “relationship” and I expected it to evolve more at some point. I had a hard time with the blatant non consent between the two also and many times I caught myself thinking the characters were just idiotic. There was way too much r@pe, assault, child sacrifice involved. I get that it’s the plot around which one of the main characters “works” but this book was just crazy. It did keep me intrigued and wanting to know what happens next. That’s about all it has going for it for me. I already have book 2 and still want to know what happens next so I plan to read it but I’m very conflicted on this rating.
