I truly don't know what to say about this book. It's unbelievably inventive and I haven't stopped thinking about it. Alexis writes from the heart. She writes from a deep and twisted place that brings books that will challenge you and your way of thinking. The depth of this book, what it means to persuade someone; what it means to own someone's body and mind and how doing that could corrupt. Absolutely power corrupts absolutely. This book is so traumatic and messed up and I loved every second of it. You are in for a ride.
Graphic: Violence
Moderate: Pedophilia and Sexual assault
