LJ birthdays and book horrors

Apr 15, 2021 13:42

In honor of LJ's birthday they are giving out a card with an event that happened the year you started your blog! Mine started in 2003, which doesn't seem that long ago until you realize IT WAS 18 YEARS AGO OMG. 18 YEARS of journaling here. That seems CRAZY.





I also read another book. I beg of you not to follow my lead.


24. Last Day by Bryan Smith

When mankind abruptly learns that there will be an extinction-level event the next day, everyone feels free to indulge in their worst depravities.

This is the first time I have ever given a book zero stars.

This is merely an excuse for torture porn. Warnings for rape, torture, violence, all manners of sexual depravity, sexual depravity with corpses, etc. There is no attempt at 'realism' within the confines of the story. Each section exists only to lead into the next round of sadism. I could give details and examples, but I don't want to give this more 'airtime' than it deserve. Why did I finish it? Honestly, because halfway through I realized it was so awful that it would clearly fit into my "You read what?!?" prompt at the ATY Goodreads challenge. I beg of you never to pick this up.
