Problematic fave.

All the trigger and content warnings: incest, abuse, alcoholism, mental illness, involuntary commitment.

I love this book so so much. Beatrice Lacey is a horrible horrible person and gets what she deserves.

It's hard to finish the books when you hate the characters so much. I suppose that means it's a well written book about obsession, but I just found it nasty.
