Hurricane Season by Fernanda Melchor
Did not finish book. Stopped at 73%.
I really enjoyed the feverish writing style of Hurricane Season. Run-on sentences, huge paragraphs... it all felt claustrophobic in a way that I loved. At least, at first. However, after sitting through some intense rape scenes, pedophilia, misogyny, and homophobia, I thought it couldn't get any worse. By the time a character started having elaborate fantasies involving bestiality, I had to throw the towel in and give up. The depravity of Hurricane Season simply became too much for me to bear.
