I usually devour John Marrs books, but this one just isn’t hitting the right stop atm - maybe the topic is just a bit too loaded (not like his other books are sunshine and rainbows) but a sick twisted narrator 100% of the time is doing my head in.

Honestly not a great book. Both protagonists are awful people and awfully written.
I get it, a sociopathic protagonist is not going to have good takes. However the use of mental health issues as a trope for villainy is just soooo tiring. Be more creative I beg.
Also boohoo Ryan your life is shit. GROOMING A 14 YO GIRL WAS STILL A CHOICE. ‘But it wasn’t sexual’ it was still fucked up.
This book is annoying
