Each page was more disturbing than the last and I honestly think it was pure morbid curiosity that kept me going. Horrifying stuff, but credit to the author that one of the most horrifying aspects of the book was also a real act of human cruelty that she wanted to bring attention to. 

 I didn’t like the Arrowwood chapters (I didn’t care enough for the overall story to think about the symbolism of them) but the way things were tied up at the end was satisfying.
