diesem buch eine gute bewertung zu geben fühlt sich so komisch an, aber ich muss sagen dass ich komplett HOOKED from start to finish war. so etwas habe ich noch NIE gelesen, was für ein geniales konzept!! vor allem der erste part war für mich so beeindruckend und fun to read, was war wahr und was nicht???
ich hätte niemals damit gerechnet dass man eine komplette auflösung bekommen würde!!! ich glaube, es hätte mir noch besser gefallen, wenn noch mehr offen geblieben wäre ODER der twist gewesen wär dass brad hinter allem überhaupt gesteckt hat… naja aber so war auch oke

 ich muss aber sagen: i love me some dark and fucked-up contents aber hier musste ich WIRKLICH schlucken und durchatmen. was hier teilweise geschrieben wurde war wahnsinnig alter & kann man bei explicit necrophilia, pedophilia und alle anderen -philias dann sone gute bewertung geben?? i guess so, wahrscheinlich sind solche foren und solche menschen halt wirklich überall und das alles ist gar nicht so weit hergeholt… trotzdem, das war zeitweise wirklich unkommentierter torture porn & das isses NICHT. 

nichtsdestotrotz war das ein wahnsinnig interessanter read & it sucked me in for good. habe auch unwillentlich echt viel über gay culture & kinks lernen können.

this book is a head fuck. huge, huge fan of the forum framing device. love a good fake internet. surprisingly good cautionary tale on the dangers of parasocial relationships.

A reminder to always check trigger warnings before reading. I was excited for this one and I was shocked at the content. It was certainly a different kind of book. Would not read again but it delivered a good shock which is appreciated
