What I especially loved about this one, aside from the authors note at the end, was the language. She has such a beautiful writing style that completely contracts the horrific content of the story and she uses that contrast to shock the readers.
I will be rereading this book whenever I get the opportunity in the future.
Again, thank you for this masterpiece!!!
