The way in which this book is presented in the form of emails and instant messages was the only thing that's enjoyable about this book... disgusting and disturbing...

Weird but not in a good way, the concept is interesting but feels rushed (expecially the "finale"). Surely disturbing.

eu não sei o que eu estava esperando quando comecei a ler esse livro, mas certamente eu nunca esperei isso

An interesting concept but more could have been done with it.

It reminds me of the book "Cartas desde el interior" (Letters from the inside) by John Marsden, a 5-stars book I read in my teens.

this was definitely a book, with a plot. super easy to read, i think this is a great start if you’re looking into getting into extreme horror, body horror or even splatterpunk.

trigger warnings out the wazoo, but i love horror by lgbtq+ authors and will definitely be picking up more eric larocca

Well, that escalated quickly....dark, disturbing, an exploration of the human need for connection. Very quick but weird and interesting read. Good intro into the horror genre for those wanting to dip their toes.
