This was batshit from the outset. It went from 0 to 100 very quickly and stayed at 100 til the end :') Very gory, very violent, very bloody and a whole lot of fun. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

3.5/5 - I almost dnf this one. still am not sure about some of it. But I found the ending pretty intense, couldn’t put it down. Decent suspense story, fairly gory and pretty well written. If u read it, tell me what you think of Hina. #justfinished #booksky #fictionbooks

I've resumed writing the manuscript for an (obviously) unfinished piece of what might be categorised as literary fiction or a biographical novel, transgressive realism.
