This book was nothing like what I was expecting. I was expecting a true horror novel. Not a perverse, overly detailed and grotesque trauma filled booklet.

This book was mostly just shock value but I actually enjoyed it regardless! Not sure how many people I’d recommend this to though. Insane amount of triggers.

This felt like a lot of shock for the sake of shock, I don't believe it advanced the plot. Honestly it's essentially a collection of graphic stories.

People kept on telling me this was a super  fucked up book and you couldn’t unsee it after you read it and for most of it I wasn’t  seeing that. The scene were some what disturbing but nothing burned in your brain bad. Till like the last chapter like what the hell was that
