I am really torn if I want to purchase this book or not. I feel that the reviews that I have read are mixed. Some people love the book and state that it is similar to Crow's Row (which I loved) but then other people state that it is a horrible book. What are your thoughts? Would you recommend it or should I skip it?

I thought this book was okay. I liked a book called Deviant by Jamie Roberts better. If you read this and Deviant to compare.

I loved reading this book. It was original and a breathe of fresh air - in a morbid kinky kind of way. I need the next book!!!!
Loved it personally. If you like/liked Raw, you will enjoy the First Debt series(they are novellas coming out about every 3 months) OR Debt. Debt, by Nina Jones, has a storyline very similar to RAW.

Personally, I wouldn't. I stopped at 70% of the book. I felt like there was no plot or story.
I loved this book. I would recommend it to everyone. It is amazing!!!! I read it in one day (and yes there were water works in the end), and hated when it was over. Great read!
I highly recommend this book, totally a 5 stars for me. If you have a soft spot for mysterious bad boys then this is a good one :) It's really captivating and I literally couldn't put the book down. Really looking forward to the next book though and hoping some things are cleared up though :)
I agree, it is kind of like Crow's Row and maybe has some elements of other books with angst heroes and twisted love stories but at the same time the author is really brilliant. I too, was so confused of whether or not to purchase the book but now I am glad that I did. It has been a GREAT experience for me, personally. I hope you get to read it but i really cant say what your view is like. I mean it is a love-hate kind of story, with unethical fantasies, questionable characters of people and stuff lie that but I DID LIKE IT...
Compared to crow's row, it is much more intimate, has maybe a darker back story.

Loved this book, whether there is another book or not I am happy with what I got ....BUT! if there was ...I will be there with bells on.
Okay so I have mixed feelings about the book. On one hand I will say it was a great book and on the other there are parts that I don't like. So to be fair I will say about 72% in I started loving it. It was worth the read and I absolutely think there should be a sequel.
I read it in one sitting, keeping up until 1:30 in the morning. The first half of the book, I couldn't believe what an a@@hole Twitch was. I actually cried at the end, which is unusual for me. It was definitely worth my time, and I'll probably keep it to read again in the future. I'll keep my fingers crossed for a sequel.
I didn't love it, but I seem to be in the minority. I was encouraged by alot of people to finish it because it was almost one that I gave up on; I was glad that I finished it by the end. I guess it depends on the type of books you like; to me, he seemed way to ugly and degrading - total turn off for me.
I didn't really love it... it was a 3 star read for me... not bad but not great!
This book is one of those stories where there is hardly a middle ground. You either love it, or hate it. It truly is one of those books where you have to read it for urself to come to ur own conclusion about it.
I think the author took a risk with this story in this genre & the way she chose to leave things with the story. But the journey, the characters, what occurs, I thought she did an excellent job on it.(Well, in most parts) We need more authors who are true to their craft & not afraid to break away from the norm.
I would say if you are a reader who just can't take reading a book that doesn't have a traditional HEA in it, (and this is why most people don't like this story) then it's probably best you don't read this book. But if you think you can handle that, then this book is definitely worth the read. Hope this helps :)

I know people love this book, for me it was a waste of my money. I really didn't like this book.
Of course I would! Definitely ! I loved the book, a little bit torn of at the end, but if the author gives us the sequel ... I would definitely be happy about it !!!
it is worth the money - it is worth the time it takes to read it ... I have read so much dribble lately - the 4th blackstone book almost killed me...... this one was so worth my time .. I Loved it.. yes it could have been better .. more details, more insight ... blah blah blah I rate it a 10 out of 5 stars .. any book that makes me cry, and leaves me hollow.. and hungry for more is money well spent !!
