The book is so layered: you begin with a deep resentment towards the character who has spent his entire existence hurting women. And particularly preying on vulnerable women, meticulously planning the ways in which to inflict pain (even up to four years). Albeit, we learn about his childhood trauma and reasoning very briefly, the story takes a dark turn and it’s interesting that we begin to feel a slight lingering of sympathy towards him. It’s a very raw account of his feelings, with some comic elements. He lives in a bubble in which he does everything for himself, but towards the end there are glimpses of reflection. Overall I enjoyed it + read in one sitting!

unpopular opinion but i actually liked this book a lot. you get to see inside the mind of a very unlikeable main character. why that would be appealing or enjoyable in anyway doesn’t make sense, and yet it works so well in this book.
