The writing was quite well done, kind of a bit of mixed media with the journal entries, chat logs, transcripts, poetry, and radio show vibes. The first three victims were well fleshed out and their trauma was ever present and horrifying. The later ones felt more superficial though I'm not really sure why. There were also quite a few questions that were raised in the plot that were never answered that made it feel a bit rushed.
I do think this is a good book that has a lot of value in representing sexual assault as a whole and especially in male victims. However, with all that in mind, I don't feel like I was the intended audience because I don't generally like to read books about rape. I suppose I didn't expect it to be quite so graphic about it.
