I felt very uncomfortable reading this book. Genuinely at around the 2/3 mark, I was getting very anxious and almost panic-attack level of anxiety. I read this for a bookclub and honestly may have dnf’d if not for that. Not to say it’s a bad book, I did place my rating in the middle, but not something I would have read on my own. A little too “creepy” for my taste.
Moderate: Violence and Blood
Minor: Sexual assault and Vomit
