I’m sure this is effective horror and succeeds at everything it sets out to do. But I’m practicing boundaries with myself so I dipped out as soon as the animal abuse came up!!

Started October with this absolutely disturbing piece of work! I was horrified from start to finish, which as a horror fan, I thoroughly enjoyed.  Though, nothing about these characters' journeys were particularly enjoyable.  True Crime is a dark piece of fiction with fantastic storytelling and monsters on every page.

Highly recommend if you have the stomach for it!

Extremely disturbing. It was a page turner, but pretty nasty the whole way through.

A deeply cynical book about how the world breaks and remakes us, and what we think we deserve as a result. A fun read but one that left me wanting something more. Definitely recommend checking trigger warnings if that's something you do.
