The characters and voices of Delicious create one of those rare novels that tweak my view of the world, just a bit. Dark and rich like 86% chocolate; with a bitter flavor that has to be savored.
Once again I am amazed at how cruel people can be. What a great story. Told backwards in increments, the story unfolds forward.
5/5
Amazing writing, a true "American Horror Story"... hauntingly realistic it its portrayal of modern-day slavery.

A work of genius. Surprised this one didn't get more awards last year. Funny, brutal and moving. I don't think of myself as a easy critic, but this is the third book that I'm giving 5 stars this year! Nice to read great books...
Absolutely amazing read! Very high tension throughout the book, engaging and thought-provoking. Though it's set in modern times, you can easily imagine the book's relation to the past.
