This was not at all a light read. While I don't think anything in this book couldn't or wouldn't happen, due to the graphic nature of the stories, I won't recommend this one. A book can be award-winning and, at the same time, not universally laudable. As the content was personally disturbing, I do not plan on continuing the series.
