For some reason, I went into this expecting it to be dark comedy. It’s really, really not. Also, I spent the whole book expecting Silas to assault Ruth or smth. That didn’t happen (so no adult/minor stuff, thankfully), but it was extremely creepy.
Cal’s backstory was interesting, if a bit too convoluted. I really wanted to like Pey, but he was just too bland.
Overall, it was dark, unnecessarily sexual and the characters a bit underdeveloped. But not bad.
