Good god the gore descriptions in this were thoroughly disgusting - I loved it. Absolutely not for the squeamish. This is definitely a dark book with some dark topics, like torture, alcoholism, drug addiction (specifically meth), and toxic masculinity made an appearance. I can’t decide if I’m glad they didn’t use or make up an old language that they reference when doing spells, or if I think it was a cop out.
There were several grammatical and spelling errors that were irksome, but it didn’t completely take away from the experience.
