A totaly unexpected end to a book that was already dark.
I always think that going into a book oblivious to the plot and to triggers is the best way for me personally. The shock factor is so much more blunt and hard hitting.
I felt an unease through out the book, but I didn’t quite figure out what was happening and when it was revealed I was sick to the stomach.
Written in a rich poetic way, this is a story of loneliness, sadness, and deep hurt rooted inside a person’s consciousness.
For me, this was Callie’s story, although she would make it out to be her brother Noah’s. She is just as oblivious as the reader, and this made my heart bleed for her.
There is a moment where my eyes just came out of their sockets at what she does, but, when it became apparent as to why and what- my god, I felt so sad for her.
‘I’m going to put on my new red dress, and dance on your bastard grave’
A really great read but deeply upsetting. I recommend to all who like the morbid, shocking, dark themed books.
Thank you so much @legend_times for my review copy.
