I'll say this : while it didn't live to its hype, I really enjoyed it. 

I expected it to be written differently, but it didn't hinder my ability to enjoy the story. I found Agnes and Zoe's relationship to be fascinating alongside Agnes' descent into madness. I do wish there had been an aftermath, or just a longer story. I wish it hadn't gone so fast since I really wanted their relationship to slowly build into horror, but yk. We can't win everything.

All in all, a great story. I'm excited to see similar works by LaRocca. :3c

what the actual fuck is this tbh. 

like the manipulation and control sort of thing had the potential to be really good but it just became some lesbian-fetishising torture porn. it also didn’t help that the book was so damn short - like i get it’s meant to be fast and intense but instead it’s just one dimensional characters with no motives that make sense and like no characterisation. 

idk. i was just disappointed, but i should’ve expected it from a man writing lesbian fiction.

It's a weird book and not my vibe of horror, almost didn't finish it because it was quite disturbing in way I didn't enjoy.
Not a fan of body horror.
