My reading experience started off really strong and then took a steep dive off a cliff. There were some twists early on that really had me intrigued but then the twists stopped coming and it just became an overly-detailed drag. This book could have been A LOT shorter. 

I knew almost nothing about the storyline going into it except that it was going to be extremely depraved and dark. And it was! But it felt… pointless. Like it was just there for shock value and nothing more. Like, why? TELL ME WHYYYY. 

I will say the best part about this book was the father. I’ll leave it at that.
