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.

The problem is that all this grotesquerie leads to no real pay off. Things just happen for the sake of cheap shock, and then before you know it, the ending comes, and you're left feeling ambivalent.
The world isn't particularly enrapturing either, just a generic feudal village.
I kind of really hate this book.
