This book was something else…I don’t know what I was going into this blind…but it was a lot. Not so much gruesome wise, just so much…hate. 

Don’t get me wrong, this book was entertaining, at times, a bit unbearable, but the writing was good. It kept me engaged and of course, it’s a quick read. 

I thought I was working up to some big ending, but it was very anticlimactic for me. I just needed more, especially from the way people loved this book. 

It’s gross at times, nothing too over the top. Some taboo topics and a lot of violence but other than that, it wasn’t very scary or anything. 

I think this can be a hit or a miss for some people. It was right in the middle for me.
