My Thoughts on Treatment
"Treatment" is a dark and disturbing novel, one that definitely left a mark on me. Diving into this story felt like wading through a swamp of angst, abuse, and complex emotions. It's not a light read by any stretch of the imagination, but it's undeniably gripping.
First Impressions
From the very beginning, I knew this wouldn't be a typical romance. The tags alone – abusive characters, child abuse, incest – paint a clear picture of the heavy themes explored. The contrast between the male lead's perspective, which some describe as an overbearing CEO and his "canary," and the male character's agonizing reality, is stark and unsettling.
What Works Well
The author's ability to immerse you in the characters' inner thoughts is a major strength. Seeing the world through the MC's eyes, feeling his desperation and warped sense of self, is incredibly powerful. The raw and unflinching portrayal of abuse, while difficult to stomach, feels very real and impactful. The writing style is also commendable, drawing you into the story and making you feel the weight of the MC's trauma. I found myself strangely captivated by the twisted dynamic between the leads, even as I recoiled from the violence and control. The ML's POV, though limited, offers a glimpse into his warped mind and the roots of his cruelty.
Areas of Concern
While the intense focus on abuse is a core element of the story, it also becomes a point of frustration. The plot can feel repetitive, almost cyclical, with the MC trapped in a seemingly endless cycle of suffering. The ending, for me, felt rushed and unsatisfying, failing to provide a sense of closure or genuine healing. I wanted to see more focus on the psychological impact of the abuse, more exploration of the MC's PTSD, and a more nuanced portrayal of their relationship beyond the power imbalance.

Final Verdict
"Treatment" is a challenging and disturbing read that explores the darkest corners of human relationships. While it's not for the faint of heart, it's a testament to the author's skill in crafting a story that is both repulsive and strangely compelling. If you're looking for a lighthearted romance, steer clear. But if you're willing to confront difficult themes and explore the complexities of trauma, "Treatment" might leave a lasting impression, even if it's not a pleasant one. I'd give it a cautious recommendation, acknowledging its flaws but also recognizing its unique power.
