Yeah, someone's mental illness is not your horror story. You can't just steal a real disorder and turn it into a "freak show" for others to gawk at. Disrespectful

I feel like this could potentially be very upsetting for people with certain mental illnesses or those who have experienced abuse.kjm_x's review against another edition

It is me. I just don't like this type of story.
I don't mind a little dark, especially in a Thriller, but there were moments in this story that right and truly made me uncomfortable. That was its intent, so no hate on this book, it just wasn't for me.
My wife loved it. BUT, then again...her favourite genre is Horror and she knows what I like/dislike. She knew that there was going to be some things that triggered me (so she told me to look out for them...which I am grateful for).
I survived and finished the book. I call it a win for me. Phew. Now I need something to wash the stick of this story off of me...quickly. Ugh.

This book is hard to talk about without spoiling it. Very worth a read.
