Description
After being imprisoned by his mother for five years, Raymond was sent to a boarding school in the countryside as if being abandoned. He began a new school life with four dormitory roommates. <Simon> – a quiet, blunt but kind-hearted boy. <Hugh> – a sociable and energetic boy loved by everyone. <George> – a mysterious boy who seems to have secrets. And now, we need to know about <Jerome>. *** <Jerome> had a room to himself. George said it was because there weren’t enough students, but I didn’t believe him. I instinctively disliked <Jerome> from the moment I first saw him. He was similar in height and build to me, but somehow seemed larger and stronger. His equestrian physique was slim and agile, and his hands were slightly larger than average. Because he rode horses every day, he often wore riding clothes. With white riding pants clinging to his legs, black boots, and a loose-collared shirt, he carried a leather riding crop. I especially disliked that crop. <Jerome> would often, as a joke, lift the tip of Hugh’s chin with the leather loop attached to the end of the crop, and the sight was extremely uncomfortable.

My Thoughts on Bad Life
"Bad Life" is a novel that truly lives up to its name. It's a dark, twisted, and often disturbing story that's not for the faint of heart. From the very beginning, I knew I was diving into something intense, and I wasn't wrong. It's a rollercoaster of emotions, and it's easy to see why it has such a strong following, despite its heavy content.
First Impressions
My initial reaction was a mix of shock and morbid curiosity. The novel throws you into a world of cruelty and abuse, and it doesn't pull any punches. Some scenes were genuinely difficult to read, and I found myself needing to take breaks to process everything. It's the kind of story that stays with you long after you've finished reading, for better or worse.
What Works Well
Despite the difficult themes, "Bad Life" is undeniably compelling. The author's writing is masterful, creating a narrative that's both gripping and thought-provoking. The main character, Raymond, is a complex and well-developed character. I found myself rooting for him, even when he made questionable decisions. His resilience and determination to survive in the face of unimaginable trauma are truly admirable. The story also explores the depths of human depravity, and how trauma affects those afflicted.

Final Verdict
"Bad Life" is a challenging but ultimately rewarding read. It's not a lighthearted story, but it's a powerful exploration of trauma, survival, and the complexities of human nature. If you're prepared to handle the dark themes and graphic content, I highly recommend giving it a try. Just be warned, it's a journey that will leave you shaken, but also deeply moved. I rate it 4 out of 5 stars.
