I really liked this book:) With knowledge that Ms Carleton writes some triggering and dark stuff, I don’t understand why people read it if they’re not comfortable with it. And then they leave nasty reviews. This book was written beautifully, and the plot was really great. I found the switching of times a little confusing, but it all added up in the end. Honestly it kinda feels like it’s left on a cliffhanger, but it’s a good ending!!
The hardcover version I bought off of Amazon somehow did not come with a page 204. Soooo if anyone has that page, please message me because I seriously need that page *enter sobbing emoji here*

This book is like a car crash, hard to look away but really not pleasant or insightful. It captivated temporarily with a blend of horror and eroticism, chock filled with gruesome details. However, the book ultimately falls short of its potential. While the portrayal of abused individuals gravitating towards controlling men and BDSM could have provided a compelling psychological exploration, the execution is lacking.
The concept of a protagonist choosing to remain in an environment rife with murder and isolation is intriguing, yet the book completely fails to delve deeply into this.
