Glad I read it, now my eyes can be glad nothing I'll ever read from this point on will be as disgusting 😃👍

Was the point to be as repulsive and evil as possible? Is it a cruel irony to have so many trigger warnings in one book?
I do not regret finishing the book, but I cannot say I enjoyed it.

This book answers the question - what if Saltburn was less interesting and 10x more gross? 🙄

Dark, grimey, disturbing and grotesque.
But somehow enthralling. Like an accidental medieval Saltburn.
No one is likeable in this book, and everyone from the most pious to the most godless have twisted morals.
I loved it.

This novel was very refreshing and I personally loved reading such a depraved novel that teeters between a thriller, fantasy and horror novel! This book is probably best suited to those who can cope with confronting and long passages about violence/sexual assault and content.
