The Monster by L.J. Shen
0.25
dark medium-paced
Loveable characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This was certainly a book. And not a good one. I genuinely can't get over all of the weird ass references the author makes, the constant subtle incest mentions, and the genuinely terrible and cringe dialogue. The number of mentions and allusions to incest is genuinely concerning and something I'm sure a therapist would love to unpack with the author.
