This is probably one of the darkest books I have read. The author pushes my limits and keeps me coming back for more. 
I think it shows a truly talented writer. Her MMC is a terrible human, his behaviour and actions are deplorable, but I'm totally down for this book. 

I enjoy all her books. There is something about people finding their person, even in the dark areas of life that makes me happy. 

The book has torture, rape and mentions of child abuse and assault so do read all the warnings.
