5 ⭐️

I rated it 4 stars after I finished and I thought that would be it. Beck's writing hooked me immediately and we're brought into a wide cast of characters who aren't supposed to be likeable but oh my god.

phenomenal I can't stop thinking about it whatsoever it's a 5 star and I need to read everything this author has released.

I am obsessed

It wasn't the worst book I've ever read. But it was definitely something. 
I feel like I came into it expecting more horror themes, so it's really on me for going into it blind. 

There are a lot of smut scenes. Which is fine, I was just expecting more of a balance. 

But if you're looking for book where the smut is the primary focus with a little horror sprinkled in, it's a good book for you.

well… that was certainly a book. one of the biggest train wrecks i’ve ever read, but for some reason I couldn’t stop. the ridiculousness was so bad that it was entertaining. 

trying to keep track of who all this girl is sleeping with (consensually? non consensually? sometimes it was hard to tell and no I will not elaborate on that iykyk) was insane. 

there were a fuck ton of POVs. like SO MANY. I swear at least 5 or 6. and that’s something I really fucking hate tbh. It was so hard to keep track. can we also talk about how they were all HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS. god. such fucking utter ridiculousness. killing people, having the dirtiest, kinkiest, roughest sex i’ve ever read. 

the smut was honestly quite fantastic. it’s so odd how sometimes these really terrible books have some of the hottest smut scenes i’ve ever read. is it because i’m depraved and dark and a little twisted? absolutely. nonetheless, YUM. 

to summarize, this book was ridiculous and hard to follow. but it was almost impossible to put it down, I was thoroughly entertained. would never be on a list of books I would recommend to anyone, but it was a wild fucking ride.
