I'm very torn on how I feel about one. The pedophile scenes and the graphic descriptions of rape & murder were alot. I almost threw the book after chapter 1. But on the other hand there was a twist I didn't see coming and I really wanted to see how the story ended.

dark

do you ever read a book that is just deeply not your thing, but you have to lead a book club about it for work, so you drag yourself through it kinda just waiting for a legit excuse to dislike it, and then you come across a predatory bisexual character and think "ok, this works as a focus for my frustrations"?
yeah
