Was the point to be as repulsive and evil as possible? Is it a cruel irony to have so many trigger warnings in one book?
I do not regret finishing the book, but I cannot say I enjoyed it.

This book answers the question - what if Saltburn was less interesting and 10x more gross? 🙄

frankly if you liked anything about this book you should be put on a watchlist. this book is full of rape, child rape, cannibalism, incest, and horrific combinations of those things for shock value & shock value only.
page after page of disgusting, depraved, and depressing nonsense with 0 cohesion. no plot or interesting character development to justify the lack of plot. the “magical realism” is just some handwavy vague bullshit. just rape after assault and some people eating thrown in for funsies! idk what the author’s other books are like but this one alone warrants jail time
what an awful fucking read! wouldn’t recommend to a person i hated. the 5 star review people are freaks and i want them investigated
