3.0

I genuinely don’t know what to say about this book. It was certainly disturbing, and it helped me realize that I can deal with blood and gore but draw the line at… other bodily fluids. I do have to say though, going into this I certainly wasn’t expecting the story to twist the way it did. I had an idea of what might be involved by the title, but the rest of the story was just a mindfuck. I also wasn’t expecting moments of emotion and sadness, so that was interesting. So, just like this book and the review I’m leaving it, my emotions are all over the place.

DNF'd because I got sucked into a long series, though I may finish it later.

The writing itself was decent, the build-up was good, I just found it to be gross and didn't enjoy it as much as other books I've read. Great for shock value.

I have all of the words and none of the words, and I certainly cannot rate this book. Not because it was bad. It was actually quite good, but I just don’t know how I feel. And it has almost every trigger warning imaginable.

4.0

Well that was disgusting. 

I’d seen this book being spoke about a lot on tiktok, but i didn’t actually know what the plot was, so i was rather curious to see what the hype was about and yeah, yikes. This was so disturbing in the best way. I physically recoiled whilst reading certain lines, and i’m gonna have some images burned into my brain for far too long. This definitely earns its title of extreme horror. 

I highly recommend checking trigger warnings and make sure you have a strong stomach before reading this

short read. got progressively more disturbing and depraved. Only thing stopping me from a higher rating is how fucked up everything in this is. Not a fan of fetish porn as horror
