I found this book on a list of the most disturbing books someone had ever read. It is rough and full of extreme violence against women, so be warned now that that is what you'll be getting into.
I found this book to be a really good thriller with lots of twists and turns. The strongest point of this book for me was the opening act. I found the relationships between the characters very compelling to read. The two sisters had me rooting for them. I wanted to stab Paul in the face, which I guess is the point of his character. Paul will 100% be on my list of worse significant others ever.
Overall, I really liked reading this book, though to say I enjoyed it would be weird given the very dark subject matter. But if you want a really dark thriller, this is a good one.
