2.0

this was on my tbr for awhile because the premise seems really funny, but this was ultimately not for me. gave 2 stars because i tore through it and felt interested enough to want to know what happened, but i didn’t like the journey that it took me on to get there

the below contains spoilers and trigger warning for pedophilia and self-harm

the harrison family characters were all unlikeable, except maybe poor mickey who deserved way better. silas was giving pedo vibes because why are you looking at a 14 year old showering???? also why are we going into graphic cutting scenes for basically no reason, as it didn’t further the plot or the character development of mickey at all. there would be so many ways to capture that she is an insecure teenager who is being bullied at school with no learned coping mechanisms yet. also, the whole character of cal and her back story was confusing at best. there was just way too much going on in this book, including the world building of hell, the backstory of cal, trying to devlop each of the harrison family members, the thriller twists, etc that it was just not a good read.
