Couldn’t fine how many pages but just started chapter 3. Just got more and more dull, not like I thought (had been told it would be). Good concept could be done really well but not this time. Would love to know who wrote it

I was shocked by what this book had to offer. I understand why a lot of people don't like this book (the content can be quite graphic and overly-sexual), but I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I would recommend giving this a read with the audiobook!

I cannot believe I wasted minutes of my life reading this awful book. Literally one of the worst things I have ever read and I feel so robbed after reading it it’s actually painful. The ‘plot twist’ of him getting hurt himself at the end is so cringey sorry. This feels like it was written by some 14 year old cishet boy who listened to Creep by Radiohead once and then developed a superiority complex. I would rather kill myself than read this shit again
