Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was drawn to this book based on the Amazon description, along with the large amount of positive reviews this book had. Unfortunately, it just wasn't my cup of tea. I read a lot, but I've never come across a book where the brutality and torture endured by characters, especially children, was so stark and cruel. Even though I'm just now leaving this review I read this book almost two years ago, and to this day it still bothers me and I still wish I hadn't read it.
