Heed the warnings on this book as it is a very extreme book! Lots of gore, torture, and lots of gag reflexes throughout the whole book. It takes a lot to gross me out, but this book did just that as it was the grossest horror book I have ever read.

The story revolves around Pam, a woman that her whole life she has lived in hard times and for a living she cleans bathrooms. She finds a genie lamp on the floor of one her job bathrooms, rubs it and is very surprised when an actual genie pops out. He tells her that he will grant her six wishes, but she has to complete six tasks to be able to have each wish. What she doesn't know is that the tasks she has to do are some of the most vilest things she has ever done, but if she wants her wishes granted then she will either have to do them or pay the consequences herself.

This book was filled with some of the most extreme situations I have ever read and believe me I have read some splatterpunk books, but they were nothing like this book. I was able to get through the book in about three hours as I couldn't put it down though at times I wanted to put it down as I didn't know if I would be able to get through it without that "gag reflex". Thankfully, I didn't eat anything before going to bed! Giving this book four stars.

This was a cool extreme horror story!

A small backstory:

Freya Flynn has an unusual hobby that takes her out into the night seeking out men that are up to no good and that like to take advantage of unwilling women. Freya blends in with the shadows as she walks around the city providing her own brand of justice.

What she doesn't know is that someone is onto her as she starts receiving anonymous letters wanting her to perform certain tasks or they will let the truth be known of what she is doing. She decides to go along with what the letters say to do up to a certain point as she has plans for this person and she is going to figure out how to get out of it one way or another.

Thoughts:

This was a short story, but it packed a wallop of suspense and tension within its pages. I have read this author before so I knew I was in for a treat with this book. Parts of the book have extreme elements but this book is mild compared to what I have read by this author before.

The pace is fast and the story rolls right along at a quick clip. There was a major twist near the end of the book that I did not see coming which accelerated this book up to full throttle. Giving this one four "Revenge" stars!
