I never wrote a review with my initial read, but holy crap. This book is all kinds of messed up. It truthfully messes with your head in such a horrific way, but it's also incredibly hard to put down. It's like it's so horrifying you can't look away even though you want to.

Truth be told, I was blessed in that I forgot the majority of the details of this book. Hopefully the same can be said for the second time around as I do not wish to remember this horrible book.

Was the writing good? Yes. Was it thrilling? Yes. But did it absolutely horrify me, disgust me, and make me never want to touch it again? Yes, yes, YES. I leave this as a warning to my future self: do NOT read it again.
