Trigger Warning: Sexual Abuse/Assault, Physical Abuse/Assault, Emotional Abuse/Assault, Stalking, Pornography, Violence, Maltreatment… ALL of Minors/Children and Murder

It was a great book, but it was truly hard to read because of how in depth this book dove into very triggering topics. Please, please read the trigger warnings of this book. The MULTIPLE sexual abuses that occur in this book are very graphic, in-depth, and are really the focus of this book. Many people will say this is a thriller/horror novel. What makes it so horrific is the depth of which all the trigger warnings are explored/written about/talked about. It’s an important read, but very, very traumatic. So please… read the trigger warnings, and if you’re someone who’s suffered from domestic/sexual assault/abuse please be cautious because such topics are explored in GREAT detail. Great book, but again, it’s an extremely hard read… especially as a survivor herself.
