Ok this is more of a warning than a review, but I’ve seen this in a lot of ~female manipulator book recommendations~ and what have you, etc., and I really have to disclaim that it’s truly a lot worse than that. Quality wise, the book is very good and I do think I’d recommend it but reader discretion is advised!!!!!! PLEASE be careful when you pick this up bc the trigger warnings are no joke. This book covers a LOT of heavy material

and does so from the perpetrator’s point of view. Irina (the protagonist) is both sexual assaulted and sexually assaults others. I’ll go more into depth abt the specifics in the trigger warnings but I really do think you should be in the right headspace when you read this

Overall, very well written and a very strong character study but absolutely sickening

I can only describe this book as: the power of being a woman and getting away with anything, at the same time as never being actually recognized for what you are. 

American Psycho-esque but so much better. The unreliable narrator made me want to start an actual police investigation against Irina.

A hideous book, really truly awful. I would have given this a 4 or more if it had built up to something? Maybe it was a continuation of the lack of stable character and narration, but it felt like the book could have ended in the middle.

Sick and twisted for sure. Definitely not my normal read but it’s always interesting to be in the mind of an out of touch and unreliable narrator. Please read the warnings before reading!!!
