Why tf did i read this when i had severe depression. No wonder i was hopeless ugh. But no joke, you could probably find someone like Crips as your coworker at some minimum-wage job. 

Honestly I only continued reading it because it was a gift from my sister…

What goes through someone’s head to even think about writing whatever this was??!

I already felt grossed out by the author in the first few pages. The way it talks about females is disgusting. For a male author, tell me why I’m not surprised. Women don’t need to be subjected to these sexual and perverted thoughts for a book to be ‘psychological’ or ‘thriller’ or ‘disturbing’ and I hate how those labels are an excuse to write gross thoughts about women. For some reason, I had hoped this book would be intelligently psychological- if you know what I mean by that. 

Not adding quotes because why would I want to disgust both myself and you reading this.

Now in paperback, the cows are on the rampage again in this infamous, chilling cult novel.

This book was fucking disgusting, which it set out to be, but that's not why I'm giving it 1 star. It was also very poorly written in my opinion. It was a struggle to get through the writing itself. It also made me want to rinse my eyes in bleach and set myself on fire, so there's that.
