“The three always turned me on: blood, and death, and Dolly. And better yet . . . Killer Dolly”
Wow, I was not expecting what I got.
Judging by the title and the news of how it was a banned book and everything, I knew it was going to be dark.
I was scared and hesitant in the beginning to start with thinking it be too dark for me.
But it was the perfect kind of dark I was looking for.
It was definitely a dark bloody red crime murder mystery SICK FUX read.
Trigger warning on a lot of things from; sexual assault, rape, paedophilia, trauma, abuse, blood, gore, graphic and descriptive details.
I actually enjoy that it focused on the revenge plotline of course with a side of romance here and there.
However, it's more focused on the character development of facing trauma, PTSD and all.
I love the Alice in Wonderland concept.
It was such a brilliant concept that I fell in love with it.
Although it was a very dark book, it was easy to read and I was going through it fast.
The pacing and structure of the book move flawlessly.
I won't mind reading more of it or about Henry\Hyde
“Soulmates forged in fire, under the watchful gaze of Satan’s mocking eyes.”
