I have all of the words and none of the words, and I certainly cannot rate this book. Not because it was bad. It was actually quite good, but I just don’t know how I feel. And it has almost every trigger warning imaginable.

Well that was disgusting. 

I’d seen this book being spoke about a lot on tiktok, but i didn’t actually know what the plot was, so i was rather curious to see what the hype was about and yeah, yikes. This was so disturbing in the best way. I physically recoiled whilst reading certain lines, and i’m gonna have some images burned into my brain for far too long. This definitely earns its title of extreme horror. 

I highly recommend checking trigger warnings and make sure you have a strong stomach before reading this
