What I got was some nasty descriptive imagery that bordered on ridiculous. Once the novelty of that wore off a shocking amount of boredom followed. Cause the main character is entirely one dimensional, having a single minded purpose of foking teen boys. That doesn't make for a very compelling read at all if the book has nothing else going on. Cause the side characters as well failed to elicit an emotional response in me, and the language too was unremarkable.

Tampa does a great job showing the realities of female predators, and how their gender and looks can make them go about their ways completely unseen, and once they’re caught, getting lighter punishments purely because they’re women. This was horrific and hard to read, but I also think really important.
The writing was impeccable, and the portrayal of an unreliable narrator was done really well.
Please check trigger warnings before reading because this is very dark and explicit

I read this book in one sitting, mostly because I didn’t want to have to pick it up again. This book makes you feel absolutely awful while reading it. It is disgusting and tragic. I can’t recommend this book, because it is such a challenging read.
