The writing was ok but not my kind of book. It was slow and repetitive and confusing and contradictory and trying to hard to be deep but was just weird to me. Many part seriously just freaked me out FOR EXAMPLE

boy masturbating with a peach and then Oliver EATING IT and them wanting to look at each others poop????!!?? Is that romance???? I cannot. Also could not get past the fact that the main character was a minor thirsting after an adult and the adult eventually consented to the relationship.

seriously this is bit fucked up but fearless I guess

The writing was beautiful and atmospheric, and I really liked the last part of the book. Other than that, this book was just... meh. There was a lot of stuff that I found boring, and a lot of stuff that weirded me out. And for the most part, the love story didn't even feel like one.

sigh. im sad to say i fucking loved this book. i’m already embarrassed enough but it is soooo beautifully written it’s a pleasure to read on that aspect alone. everything was really lovely aside from the large age gap and

shitplay.

great read!

challenging emotional reflective tense slow-paced

3.0

extremely graphic lovestory! not for the faint of heart. I did not love it, I felt it was tiring after a while. I did like how you follow the main character into his twisted mind, his obsession. but I did not really feel for him, I didn`t care for him. It was somewhat disturbing at times. The characters remained distant and unrelatable to me. But still: amazing writing. I felt like this book could have been even shorter.
