What the $&@! did I just even read?
This book had potential. We have two introverted characters - one obsessed with his (dead) mother and is a stalker, the other is a coffee/book shop worker who is the prey but turns out to be a black widow. Clint’s relationship with his mother was graphic and gruesome but I felt it was well written/captured. What got me though was the daughter’s involvement in the book. That whole plot felt choppy and only included because the author knew how he wanted to end the book. Also the pelvis… barf!

I have no idea what I just read. I only know I never want to read it ever again. It may have been short but my god it managed to reaffirm my lack of faith in the male population and stands as evidence of a male author’s purely sexualised approach to story telling.

Well...that was a strange, bizarre, creepy, disturbing little book...and I enjoyed every minute of it. Not sure what that says about me...but I wasnt bored at any point and found it very entertaining. Free on Kindle Unlimited.
