This book is absolutely insane. I would never have guessed where it was going. Do not read this if you are sensitive to sex, violence, or anything really. It is incredibly graphic with a horrific story.

EXTREME HORROR BOOK NOT FOR UNDER 18S!!!
What a messed up little book this is. Angel is tell an escort stories whilst doing sexual things to her . Each story is horrid but the intrigue keeps you wanting more. A story of drugs, abortion, dismemberment, and other very grotesque happenings. Not to be read if queezy themes are a no

Is it wrong of me to like it? Maybe. But I did like it.
The book is basically just a trauma-porn about broken people but elevated to the extreme. I couldn't for the life of me look away from the pages, so captivating and horribly bizzare the content was.
I guessed the ending 50-60 pages in, but I've watched (and loved to bits) Gozu by Takashi Miike, so it was the least shocking thing to me in this whole book.
Read all the trigger warnings carefully. They are here and they are very real.
