Query: Unpleasant to say the least

Despite being warned, I gave this book my time. And what a waste of time it was. This book was the worst book I have ever read. The writing style was jumpy and choppy. The choppiness of the writing made it difficult to follow. The ending just creeped me out. No wonder the movie bombed - even with Meg Ryan. And why would an actress like Meg Ryan want to be involved in such a dark, yuck, story? Warning! This is very sick stuff and not at all sexy or erotic. I hope to never again read about a murderer who likes to cut the nipples off his victims to save as "souvenirs" and all sorts of other unpleasant crap. This book was CRAP.
