I genuinely don’t know what to say about this book. It was certainly disturbing, and it helped me realize that I can deal with blood and gore but draw the line at… other bodily fluids. I do have to say though, going into this I certainly wasn’t expecting the story to twist the way it did. I had an idea of what might be involved by the title, but the rest of the story was just a mindfuck. I also wasn’t expecting moments of emotion and sadness, so that was interesting. So, just like this book and the review I’m leaving it, my emotions are all over the place.

Use of the n word multiple times from a white writer for 0 reason. It seems like he only made the characters black because, he wanted to humiliate black people and have an excuse to use the n word. The same characters could've be white and literally the only thing that would be changed is randomly using racist terms.
