Wow. What a book. I loved this, one of the most realistic yet still shocking and fun horror books I've read to date. Would reccomend to anyone who can handle the topic of n3cr0ph1li4.

Loved it!

Hey you know what this was an enjoyable read. It's interesting seeing how yeah in Capitalism how would you profit about having sex with a corpse and the logistics on it. Who are the customers. Why. What it's selling. And seeing how one guy is trying to save a dead body from further desecration. 

also i figured that this dude was an abusive piece of shit since the first chapter/beginning really. The subtle memories and behavior he had really built up about how much of an abusive trash this guy was. Very well done as he just gave into his demented spiral. That made the book for me, reading it specifically to see him suffer
