Honestly… I couldn’t even tell you if you liked this. It’s a really unhappy book. There are some gems of dialogue and some of the plot points are quite cleverly arranged, but at the same time the content is unnecessarily brutal and for no reason. The presence of a child sex slave, even with external commentary, is upsetting. I’m only going to continue because my friends have promised me the sequels are worth it.
