liked it

oh, wow. okay. this book is all kinds of messed up. its graphic and vulgar and violently showcases just how prevalent hatred is when it comes to revenge. everything about this suits the story to perfection.

aaand i think it may have been a little too hardcore for me... 🙈 haha.

not a bad book by any means. i actually would say its quite exceptional when it comes to themes and characters and life in the south. its just that a lot of the content made it pretty difficult for me to personally have a super positive reading experience.

Jessica great review, jessica! i had a similar experience as you so I had to DNF, but I can see why some people love it.


Kaley McClellan I agree. It was way too much for me and I felt like it overshadowed the important themes the author was trying to convey? Can see why some people liked it though…

Christopher Febles Yea, I’ve heard the same from others


Katie.dorny Disappointed this one didn’t work out for you, this man is one of my instant 5 star authors. Can’t win them all!


message 5: by Carmen (new)

Carmen I want to read this soon but I'm nervous with how violent I heard it is!


jessica jessica - oh no! so sorry this one was such a miss for you. :(

kaley - oh, yeah. i completely understand where your are coming from. i get it.

christopher - its gritty, thats for sure!

katie - sooo happy you loved this! i need to try some of his other books!

carmen - yeah, its a lot. i can usually tolerate violence/graphic things, but this one really weighed me down for some reason.


Readabookmofo Very surprising about the violence. I didn’t think it was that bad at all. Crazy how books can be interpreted so differently. I love literature 💖

Donnie McDow i feel the same-i started it last night and a few things bugged me about it....i can't say here because of spoilers but i put it down-this is my first book by this author


message 9: by Dan (new)

Dan I’m glad I read your review. I’m not a fan of hardcore violence. I’m going to take it off my “want to read” list.


Lezli Hewitt Why judge a book as bad when you're just a little light weight with virgin ears


Aaron  Wempe I’ve seen you review far deadlier and gruesome books. This was surprising to read, especially the Romantasy you read. Anywho, good review.
