Well, for starters, it's 4 stars but not a good 4 stars. I liked it because it appalled me. I just really enjoy reading about psychotic and disgusting people. It intrigues me and being inside his head and taking a look around was just something else. Mentally, not physically, I never hit a girl in my life. Well, once. But that was a mistake.
