adventurous dark emotional funny medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes

4.5

Took me a bit to get into the story, particularly because there is a lot of mention of sexualized violence, but it is an engaging story, and the main character is really enjoyable for all his flaws. The ending was excellent, but is heart breaking.

aroguemonster's review against another edition

The prose and graphic nature weren't really appealing. I only kept reading because it was here, but I'm returning it to the library so I can get something else to read.

clawrence345's review against another edition

Was not for me. Too graphic and felt almost as though the author was purposefully trying to be as explicit as he could about sex.
