this is. the grossest shit ever. it was very well written. it was tense. it was stressful. it was well thought-out. it has fascinating characters and a very tight story and a well-executed setting. and it is also gross nasty grossness. the descriptions of the gross stuff were so well done, they were upsettingly gross. just an all-around good, gross book.
