I started this book awhile ago, but stopped because i was revolted by the incest. Recently i decided to give the book another try, and this time finished it! Although the book is very disturbing, it is one of the most riveting and haunting books i've ever read. I am literally still thinking about it weeks later, its that powerful. I think the thing that sets this book apart from others the way you get inside Beatrice's head. Its amazing how she makes her despicable actions seem resonable, so although you want to hate her, somehow you just cant! This is a very worthwhile read, but not for the faint of heart...
