No book has ever given me more anxiety than this book.

Check your trigger warnings.

This book is not particularly well written, but it is incredibly captivating. This is one of the more unique, creative, and wholly inventive books I've ever read. I wish this author had had a better editor/editing team, but this will capture your attention from cover to cover.

Everything about this book is crass. There are several very off-color rape jokes and the violence is so casually brutal I was constantly flinching.

I'm rereading this triology and i am having the time of my life. The writting is very basic, but nora sakavik really does  know what we readers want to read, and that's why this book is soooo fast pace. I was having a reading slump, and this series was just what i needed. Now I’m actually excited to continue my TBR!!!!
Most of the characters are/were fucked up. I mean…👀

Neil still remembered Kevin's breakdown […]

And this😌

“God damn it, Minyard. This is why we can't have nice  things”
“Oh, coach,” someone said over Neil’s  head. “If he was nice, he wouldn't be any use to us, would he?”
“He's no use to us if you break him”
“You'd rather i let him go? Put a band-aid on him and he'll be good as new ”

please don't read this series if you're not already extremely fucked up and have nothing to lose. the writing is terrible, it doesn't make sense, there are extremely harmful stereotypes and painfully outdated language, and the whole series is just one huge trigger warning. if you love bullshit for the sake of shock value, maybe give it a try. this series has taken over my life and i wouldn't have it any other way. but that does NOT mean i'd recommend it to anyone, necessarily. just...be careful. go read the raven cycle or six of crows instead.
