Ok so, the premise was great, the third quarter was fantastic so much shit was happening.  love. The writing style was meh. The first section of the book has more challenging themes mentioned casually - rape, sexual assault, sexual (gendered) violence, yada yada - it got les through your the book but you have to read through a bit of it to get to the good plot. Considered dnfing just less that halfway through, glad I didn’t.

This book has one of the most graphic and gory scenes I've ever read in a book. The author doesn't shy away from any aspect of the word grotesque. 

I wish the POV's were either less people or more included per chapter. The execution of the story feels choppy because of the writing style.
