I take offense that this book tried too hard. The subject matter was disturbing, but wasn’t written well in my opinion. Dialogue sucked, characters weren’t realistic. Not sure what all the hype is about.

Though the writing is, owing to the narrator's point of view, deceptively lighthearted, this novel offers a disturbing look into the mind of a ruthless predator. It's a portrait of an abuser in the modern age as well as a rare look into the world of a female sex offender.
