Overall, Out was an incredibly enjoyable thriller that captivated my interest from the first section. This book was violent, gory, and disturbing; but it all seemed to be leading towards fascinating points about desperation and solidarity. I absolutely loved it! ...Until the final section, titled "Exit." In that section, there is an excruciatingly violent scene that readers are forced to experience not once, but twice. The only word that I can think of to describe that scene is 'gratuitous.' Not only that, but one of the main characters thinks, says, and does some surprising and heinous things. There's a bit of a twist in her entire outlook that surprised me in a terrible and disappointing way. I think that the majority of Out could have been considered feminist until Exit, when readers become deeply immersed in an entirely anti-feminist conclusion.
I read this book as part of @occuhazard.bookclub.
