I will say that this was GORY. Some scenes were very hard to read (see CW - rape, child murder, animal death) and I'm glad I was reading it in print so I could do some strategic skimming. So probably won't read again, but it was a spectacular one-off!

Effortless, detailed world building. Darkest Academia vibes with uncompromising personalities you hate yourself for liking.
It's a violent one, so buckle up if you're squeamish. It never felt unnecessary or gratuitous. It always served a purpose plot wise. And I greatly appreciated that sexual violence was implied not explicit when it easily could have been described for "the plot." Didn't play it for shock value. That alone will have me reading more books by the author.
