I hate to admit that I enjoyed this book, but I really did.
Its a great horror/thriller read with a lot of very dark plot points and a twist that I wasnt expecting at all. (I am a bit daft though, I'll be the first to admit it)
If you're a sensitive reader I highly recommend thoroughly perusing the trigger warnings, as they'll definitely be needed.
All in all, if you're someone who can handle dark topics I'd recommend this to you.

I think the themes of gender identity and masculinity lead to such a complicated conclusion, not only for our narrator but for us. Do you hold sympathy for a person who is incapable of feeling any themselves?
This is a story of both a victim and a perpetrator, who in the end holds no deep feelings about anything at all.
