yikes, super dark + disturbing read! i knew what i was getting into so i wasn't surprised, but man, was i disgusted. i had a good time playing detective as i picked up the context clues + pieced together Quentin's situation as the son of a well-to-do family (who literally gets away with murder because of this fact), but that was literally the only enjoyment to be had. the rest of this read was incredibly bleak + horrifying. that's not the reason for the 3-star rating tho. ultimately, i kinda found quentin to be vapid and uninteresting as a pov character. i felt like there were a lot of interesting things the author could have explored with him, but instead he came off as not having a whole lot of depth, imo.
