depressing read with not much substance

Honestly if you just turn your brain off and ignore all the problems in the story, it's an entertaining read to say the least.

Turning your brain back on it's hard to say my thoughts about the story. For one, I can compliment the art and the way the facial expressions are drawn in a way that accurately and wonderfully captures the character's emotions. The story is a somewhat accurate representation on the effects of trama on some; the nihilistic, derealized and depressive mindset one may acquire due to the effects of abuse (I say this is as someone who's life is still heavily affected by the truama).

There is not much for me to say besides this other than Minho never deserved any of it. To leave an implication that he deserved said incidents that happened to him due to his actions he had done in the past is nothing but absurd ludicrousy (which may be obvious). The ending is a depressing one, one where he is stuck in a cycle of never ending truama forever. I do prefer it over a cliche death scene, but I do wish that Minho would have not given up his life so easily. This may be a work of fiction, but I hope that all of those suffering from abuse to get away from those who have abused you. Do not let them tempt you, do not let them have control over you.

Don't have much else to say, just an overall depressing read that makes you feel empty by the end. If you want a good psychological thriller but don't want to use your brain too much, give it a read. If you are looking for something more in depth or more wholesome, look elsewhere.
