4.0

A vicious, nasty, squirm inducing book that is hard to put down and will absolutely stick with you. Definitely recommended if you like body horror and are comfortable with gruesome depictions of violence. Be warned that there are graphic depictions of animal cruelty and self harm that are very upsetting and will not go down well with everybody. If these things don't deter you it's lean, mean and well worth your time.
