Did not finish book. Stopped at 85%.

An intense read, but once I put it down and thought about it I realised it was hurting me more than anything else.

Content Warnings

Graphic: Domestic abuse, Emotional abuse, Dysphoria, Fatphobia, Pedophilia, Physical abuse, Cursing, Drug use, Gore, Sexual harassment, Self harm, Adult/minor relationship, Alcohol, Death of parent, Mental illness, Body horror, Stalking, Torture, Transphobia, Child abuse, Injury/Injury detail, Death, Excrement, Vomit, Blood, Incest, Murder, Pregnancy, Rape, Violence, Sexual assault, and Sexual violence

All trigger warnings are under graphic because most are regular topics and even if they aren't, the author is detailed and doesn't hold back on any of it. Not something I would recommend to many, especially those who haven't tried any transgressive horror before. Start at the shallow end with something else, then see if this is for you.
