This book is so much darker than the first one. It made it hard to get through the first part of the book. I also think the book should have been shortened a little bit. The violence and dark subject matter turned me off a little.

This book is frustrating because it's entertaining... But also really screwed up. Like... Really screwed up. I don't recommend it.

This thing was really pushing the limits of what I want to consume as entertainment, I found myself cringing from some of the graphic sexual violence and some of the excruciatingly detailed murder scenes. It’s not for the faint of heart. There’s also a lot of choking and knife/blood play in the sex scenes, so if you don’t want to read that don’t read this book.

This books bread and butter is cringe trigger warnings, so if you are someone sensitive to explicit talk of rape, murder, mutilation etc, just don’t read this. If you though Haunting Adeline was bad this thing is 10 times worse
