I don't know what I was expecting, but that's definitely not it. it was SO weird, so gross and gruesome at times, and even violent. The fact that this is based on a real story just... makes me kinda nauseated. I know that maybe it's not THAT BAD but as a whole this book was definitely SOMETHING. It made me disgusted, and I liked that. Books that have an impact are very entertaining to read. I also finished this in like an hour so it was a quick read. Definitely recommended!
