This was a very disappointing read for me this book waited till the last pages to finally get gory and entertaining.

I have all of the words and none of the words, and I certainly cannot rate this book. Not because it was bad. It was actually quite good, but I just don’t know how I feel. And it has almost every trigger warning imaginable.

The execution of this was everything. 

Was it disgusting and disturbing? Yes. Did I cringe at certain parts near the end? Yes. Was there gore and trauma on every page? Yes. 

But there was also heartbreak and hardship and raw human emotion. Fantastic read that I highly recommend. 

Check those trigger warnings!

Read TWs before reading this book!

The ending was predictable to an extent. The last chapter I did not quite expect to go down how it did. If you can stomach past the TWs, the story being told is actually well written.

I think the aim of this book was to make the reader feel very uncomfortable and it certainly succeeded
