This book is not for the squeamish. It’s dark, graphic, dirty and very descriptive. All the trigger warnings tagged on it are true.  I happen to have a strong stomach.  

The story was much different than what I’ve ever read that is horror.  I enjoyed it, so I’m not sure what that says about me.  There was a bit of sarcastic commentary that made it less gross than a typical horror story.
