I'm freeee! Worst experience of my f****** life !!
I picked up this book because I love American lit and particularly Southern literature.
Firstly the pacing was crazy slow. I don't actually mind this but I was on chapter 20 of 23 before I thought it was starting to get good.
Was hoping it would have a twist ending that would change my mind about it all but unfortunately, it didn't.
Maybe I just didn't get it, but it wasn't for me. I think this one is for the hardcore McCarthy fans, I fear.
I can't even begin to list the trigger warnings below because there are just too many! Be warned!
