Maybe it's because I'm used to fucked up stuff from reading Dutch literature but it's not as shocking as some reviews make it out. Still, unpleasant stuff.

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.
