This book is depressing… there is absolutely no brevity in it and it feels very one note. That being said, after about 150 pages of thorough reading I switched to skimming and actually enjoyed the rest of the book. If you can get over the soul-crushing subject matter and events, there’s some fun twists and turns in it.

Dark and twisted, all the main characters are completely hateful. Really good thriller showing how awful events can lead to people doing awful things.
