Even the ones he wrote for anthologies. So I went into this new one completely blind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We meet Erin who was taken and thrown into a world of debauchery. She ends up down a dangerous path but as she&#8217;s learning the ropes of her new lifestyle, she quickly realizes that things aren&#8217;t exactly as they seem and she doesn&#8217;t know who she can trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just when I thought that this book isn&#8217;t as bad as Mique&#8217;s other stuff or that it&#8217;s not as extreme or gross as I expected&#8230;um&#8230;yeah I was wrong. The things someone does for survival. I kept thinking to myself, nope, there is no way but at the same time, I&#8217;ve never had to deal with this sort of situation. So who actually knows how they&#8217;d react or what they would do given the circumstances. I&#8217;d like to think I&#8217;m strong and would also do anything to survive but I&#8217;m not actually sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have to say that as someone with a uterus, one of the last scenes&#8230;.holy crap on a cracker. What a way to go. It reminded me of Art from the Terrifier movies and what he liked to do to his victims. Wow. Mique, you upped your game with this one. I&#8217;m going to think of this scene every time I go for a physical now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ending of this book was NOT what I was expecting at all but like I&#8217;ve said many times in previous reviews for other books, Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like always, I suggest going into this book completely blind. It&#8217;s more fun that way. But I will tell you that if you like cult horror or anything remotely having to do with cults, then this may be for you. While this book isn&#8217;t as gory as some of Mique&#8217;s other work, it&#8217;s definitely just as gruesome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Can be read in KU &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4oqH6Rg\">https:\/\/amzn.to\/4oqH6Rg<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Erin Shepherd runs away from home, certain she&#8217;s escaped the worst kind of monster.
