BIG DISCLAIMER: this book starts with a disclaimer from the author. Take it seriously. 

This book was not my cup of tea, and I honestly feel sick having finished it, but I'm rating it on writing, not my personal opinion so it's 2.5 stars. The plot is nuts, not super well put together, and the Knox sections were confusing and I skipped most of them. Also, I'm not a prude about cussing in books, I'm all for it, but my head ached trying to read 3 f***s in one sentence. To anyone who thinks Crescent City had too much cussing, this is not the book for you! 

I won't be finishing the series, I'm shocked I pushed through to finish it at all. 

TW: rape, sexual assault, murder, child death, miscarriage, misogyny, sexism, violence
^^^ take these warnings seriously ^^^
