I gave it 2 stars not because it’s bad but because it’s such a dark horror story that creeped me out and made me uncomfortable.

Relies on shock value. The fast pace and short read does not make up for the story. 
 

 
I do not mind extreme horror or gore, but the topic of rape needs to be handled respectfully. 

The main female character has her body and trauma used for the sake of the protagonist, the ending is particularly disgusting. Sexual violence being used in service of someone's goals is vile.

It was pretty obvious in the first few scenes where this was going and its a fun little ride once you accept that, yes, the main character is gonna

put his entire head inside the sex workers vagina and he won't be dissuaded from it,

even if it kills him. 

The ending was a fun little twist with the sex-worker finding the whole thing reawakening her tragedy-suppressed mothering-instincts and

then deciding to keep the guy as her baby.

Ngl, did not see that coming haha.
