This wasn't really for me. I kept going because it was just compelling enough that I wanted to know what happened, I suppose, but what did happen was.... eh. And the rampant misogyny throughout was just... a lot. Occasionally, there were some funny bits, and I really like the red skull cover, but glad to move on.

If I didn’t have a need to finish almost every book I start, I wouldn’t have reas this whole novel. I know the story was taking place in the early-mid 00’s but I was very put off by the frequent use of the r word and the blatant misogyny. It made it hard to get through.
