WOW.....!! I'm a little shocked right now. Give me a second. 
 I'm not sure I'll be able to encompass all the feelings this book evoked but here it goes.... 
 Degradation is not for the light hearted! The book hit nearly every type of romantic plot that usually puts me off a book! Cheating, open relationships, disrespect towards women...you name it. Somehow, for some reason, I just couldn't put it down. I hated the book but I also loved it because it was so emotional. Stylo Fantome is very talented. 
 Tate was a train wreck from the beginning. I hated how little respect for herself she had but at the same time, I loved how strong she was and that she took what she wanted from life with no apologies. She was amazing. 
 On the other hand, Jameson was one of the most easily hated male romantic interests I've ever read. However, he managed to do just enough nice things to make me keep reading. 
 At the end of the book in the Acknowledgements, Stylo mentioned that she wrote the book following the meme "Write in a Way That Scares You". I think she succeeded because I was definitely scared for Tate a large majority of the time. 
 In addition, if the contents of the book were not enough to have me pulling my hair out, the ending would have done it. It was shocking, devastating and a complete cliffhanger. Luckily the next book is out because I don't know how I would wait after that ending.
