I'm trying to give this a fair review but I hated it.
  • It's certainly dark but too dark for my taste.
  • Most of the actions are bordering on r*pe if not full on r*pe
  • Felt defeating as hell to read. Since this is a first person pov, by the time I was halfway through the book my self confidence was nonexistent. The first book seems to be all about the girls getting their ass handed to them.
