I'm too old for this book, but that doesn't take away from how bad it is.
These are high school students. Teenagers. Being raped by each other and the adults in their lives, being manipulated, everyone in a relationship is cheating with multiple other people - it's really just child porn. However, even if the author would've aged up the characters to college; it's still not a good book.
Add in, this is supposed to be an erotic HORROR novel. To qualify for the horror part of that, there needs to be more blood, body horror, SOMETHING! If the same amount of detail went into the horror aspect as into the erotica - then maybe it would qualify and actually be a gruesomely fun read.
Think WISH Scream + TEMU Cruel intentions. Only the killer(s) are OBVIOUS from the moment they are introduced.
To be clear, I am a huge fan of erotic horror. The more messed up, depraved, and nausea inducing - the better.
If you want any substantial horror with your erotica, this ain't it.
