if i had to describe this book i would say extremely disturbing but weirdly fascinating. I had to put my book down a lot because of greatly described dark scenes but the need to see how the characters would develop made me unable to stop reading. What was fascinating to me was how we could see in each action and each dialogues of the main characters the trauma they went through. We could see how they tried to overcome all these fears/tricks of the mind but could go past their nature. 
I wouldn’t recommend it to everyone, it’s kind of a hard book to read but i liked it more than i thought i would reading the first lines.
