However, it very much is a product of its time and while I generally appreciate darker themes and shocking scenes in novels, some parts felt shocking just for the sake of shock.
I'm glad I've read it at almost 30 and not at the first time I picked it up when I was 19.

There’s an infamous scene where a child is forced to inflict a pretty upsetting act and it’s basically impossible to appropriately and accurately describe in trigger warnings. So, WARNING WARNING WARNINGmeaghanelizabook's review against another edition
