Not a bad book but not at all for me! This book was not what I signed up for at all, and the ending seemed like it wanted to pile on traumatic thing on top of traumatic thing until it all seemed meaningless and needlessly dark for the sake of shock value. The whole point of the book is that humans are monsters and will use any excuse to justify their terrible actions, but in the end when someone finally tries to do something right, it backfires and causes more pain.
