I think this was actually an interesting read and a deviation from what I would normally enjoy. It was very very dark though. It was a clever plot which kept me interested, but I’d have a hard time recommending this book to many people given the nature of some of the content.

Eesh.

The "she got what she deserved" thing doesn't really work when we're talking about sexual abuse.

I liked this until the end, but then it just felt gross.
