What readers are saying about this book

Summarized by Pango AI

PangoBooks readers find this novel to be a powerful, dark, and emotional read that extensively explores heavy and triggering subject matter, including grooming and abuse. The book captivates with its meticulous and claustrophobic prose, making it difficult to put down despite its uncomfortable content, and leaves a lasting impact. Readers are divided, with some praising the story’s depth and realism, particularly focusing on Vanessa's struggle and the damaging effects of manipulation, while others found the content too disturbing and the pacing slow at times. Most agree that although it is incredibly well-written and thought-provoking, it is not a book for everyone due to its intense and sensitive themes.
