major antisemitism, body horror, drug use smoking tobacco, sexism as us common in noir genre, violence,
medium victim blaming, anti black racism, domestic violence, sharps,
minor child abuse,
it was ok. i dont think ive ever read a Khaw book that i liked or enjoyed so this was a decent change of mediocrity from the author.
▪ Your actions say you do, princess. Unless you’ve got a fetish for being knocked around, none of this makes sense to me.”

▪ He hated his stepfather, hated him like Hitler hated the face in the mirror.
What the fuck is this Khaw you stupid cunt.
