I went into this thinking this was just another Gothic novel. BOY WAS I WRONG! The twist genuinely got me and disturbed me greatly. Some of the ending felt a little out of place for me, gearing almost into the ridiculous, but I genuinely couldn’t put it down once I reached the big reveal.
Graphic: Body horror, Incest, Rape, Suicide, Violence, Blood, and Vomit
Moderate: Child abuse, Child death, Gun violence, Cannibalism, Colonisation, and Classism
