The writing itself was decent, the build-up was good, I just found it to be gross and didn't enjoy it as much as other books I've read. Great for shock value.

Read TWs before reading this book!

The ending was predictable to an extent. The last chapter I did not quite expect to go down how it did. If you can stomach past the TWs, the story being told is actually well written.
