Honestly I wanted to love this, but it is just overly dark, violent, and twisted to the extent that it doesn’t feel necessary. The author includes a lot of details about characters and events that don’t really add anything to except for the fact that they are weird or messed up?!?
It’s also incredibly hard to read, I don’t know how to explain why except for the way that it is written.
