I actually threw the book into a corner after I was halfway through because I was getting sick of the gory. I was sitting on the bus reading pages after pages after pages of women being taken apart and dude, I'm unsquickable usually but I kind of ... missed the plot in the book.

Or ... maybe I just didn't get it.

I think I gave the book to a friend to read and never got it back. Oh well, no big loss.
