Real page turner. There were a few spot that seemed like they were added in just to be edgy. But other than that it was a fun read.

I waffled between a 1 and a 2 star rating for this one. There were some good parts to it but the majority of the book I was just cringing with feelings of ickness and grossness. I don't really understand some of the stuff that was put in here. It was just some chapters and parts just left you feeling seriously uck... and it seemed like it was for no reason. It seemed like every page the author was like hmm... how could I make this just a little more disturbing? I don't know, I really wanted to like this. I pushed through all 470 plus pages of it but I just didn't like it. I am looking forward to moving onto the next...

Se me ha hecho pesadísimo y creo que más de la mitad del libro es puro relleno, y desde luego yo no lo consideraría un libro de terror ni mucho menos… Todo está muy inconcluso, así que bueno, la idea tenia potencial pero para mi gusto se quedó muy pobre.

It got too disturbing...the scenes with Hakan, especially the sexual assault scene was just too much and honestly shouldn't have been in there. Don't know why people think this is such a great book.
