This book was in the vein of many male authors who write stories about men who lust after younger women, sometimes literal children. I didn’t hate every part of but I did hate large portions of it. This book contains a lot of death and a lot of sex (often between an older man and a much younger woman, or at least a woman described physically in what I find to be, frankly, creepy language) and honestly if you’re a woman and/or not white and/or not rich this book may not be for you. It certainly wasn’t for me.
