Beautiful imagery of nature. Horrifying exploration of pressured consent. Reminded me of the quote “when you are not fed love on a silver spoon, you learn to lick it off knives.”

Really loved this quick thriller. It was unsettling the whole way, our narrator doesn’t always share the whole story. 

Definitely check the trigger warnings on this one, not gory at all but still disturbing. 

Really liked the style of the text formatting, but it does take some getting used to. 

Overall, could not stop thinking about it, read it every chance I could.
