WTF — I don’t even know what to say w/ this one.  It was good, really good, but also — really twisted. 
I’m also biased on why CH didn’t include a trigger warning page. This book truly needs one!
Otherwise, I’d recommend you read it at least once.

This was book was really interesting and I found myself not wanting to put the book down, at first it was a little slow but once you reach a few chapters it it gets really good but the ending had me questioning whether what I was reading was actually what happened.

It was hard to put it down at times but made me feel uneasy at the story line. Very heavy themes involving the death of children which took me by surprise.

every character is straight up psycho. the storyline itself was actually really good but I felt like the manuscript chapters were way better than any of the current plot chapters. tension is built well but many plot points are rushed through or explained away too easily

It really is a good story and I love the ending. Such a beautifully made plot leaving you with goosebumps. 

There has been moments where I've felt disgust, sadness, anger and awe to the stories. 

The only thing I wish, is that I was aware of how graphic and sexual some of the content was... Which made me skip some lines here and there.

Eitherway, it's an amazing story which I recommend. The plot is well made and at the end you won't know what is true and what is not.
