I don't know if I liked it. Wanted to throw up multiple times. The end is just giving the creeps. So unsettling to see such dehumanised people. Very disturbing. Hard to read. When I was reading the beginning of them living together I thought to myself oh that's what I was waiting for. But 20 pages left it was just too much I convinced myslef to finish it.
