On one side I thought that it was pretty good but on the other side I can’t stop thinking “what the fuck did I just read?”
It is nothing like I have ever read before, I definitely wouldn’t say it’s a bad book but I think I’m struggling morally with reading something that includes such horrific things done to kids.
