The reading is soo good and descriptive. I could visualize everything perfectly fortunately and unfortunately. I almost didn’t want to rate it so high because of how deeply disturbing and explicit this book is, but the writing was impeccable. If reading about sexual scenes especially SA is too much do not read this book.
