First of all, I got this book free. Which is automatically a few stars.
Now, let me say this... Sometimes when I read a book such as this one, I have to wonder about the author's mind. And this author is sick. I get it. I write twisted stuff, too. But this seemed so personal. And it could be very much a true story.
Anyways, a boy plans to rape a girl. Which he does, with a few hiccups in his plan. It's not gory per say, but it's twisted. It's short, and it held my attention perfectly.
I hated one scene with animal cruelty, but it kinda helped to establish the main character's mindset.
Sex with a dead body doesn't bother me, but I'm sure it might offend other readers. All I can say is that I give this book 5 stars because it's twisted. Plus, Caleb M. Golden, I think you scare me. Well done

Short novella that I did not expect to enjoy as much as I did.
