Read this along with 2 senior AP Lit classes. While I really loved discussing the book with the students, I didn't love the book. In fact I plain didn't like it, though I appreciated a good portion of the writing, even though there was some heavy-handedness at times. I definitely had to take emotional breaks when it was at peak humanity's-descent-to-hell. I'm not sure I'm ever getting that pivotal blood/semen/shit gang rape & murder scene out of my head, unfortunately.
