"Wtf....
ok, so first off, not really my type of book so keep in mind if reading. However, I read it in a day, so it kept my attention and made me need to keep going. I can't even really say whether I enjoyed it or not tbh. But people who love gory, bizarre stories will love it. There's so much going on and it just kept getting weirder and weirder."

"Gross, terrifying, and stuck with me long after I finished the last page."

"W…T….F. Go into this one blind. It’s a WILD journey, that’s ALL too relatable, (especially after what’s happened the past couple years IRL.) Last couple chapters seemed a bit unnecessary, almost felt like the author was trying to meet a page count. "

"I absolutely loved the grotesque descriptions of atmosphere and gore in this book. My only real qualm with it is how immersion breaking some of the dialogue is. If you don’t mind that though it’s a good read"

"This book is disgusting, and I need more. It was recommended for people who enjoyed The Deep by Nick Cutter and it blew it away."
Sophia Isiminger
"We were kind of left on a cliffhanger at the end of this book, but I'm not mad about that. This book did gross me out often, it was really peculiar as far as body Gore, but I did keep reading so I must have enjoyed it."
Trinity Moore
"What did I just read?! Someone I love most once said, "Cosmic horror answers ZERO questions," and that's what this is. The writing was engaging and gory. The themes were...gross and poignant. But it set up a lot (quite well) that it had to pay off too quickly.<br/><br/>"

"I don’t know how to review this. I enjoyed it and it was not what I was expecting. This was a hardcore horror books. LOTS of body horror. Was def grossed out at times. Still enjoyed it."
