I like Tremblay, so seeing his quote on this book saddened me. Either he was paid to do so, or she sucked his dick within an inch of his life. It just doesn't make sense. And to answer your question no, the book has no merits. Literally the best things about it are the cover and the title. It seriously reads like a bargain bin Haunting of Hill House with the cast of Dawson's Creek. But worse somehow.

Tremblay was my calculus teacher in high school. He liked to brag about his books and other shit, like his master's degree in math, constantly implying he was above being a teacher. He wasn't a very good teacher either. No one liked him
We had some in-class contest that I won and the prize was a signed copy of Little Sleep. Thanks Mr. Tremblay

I could barely make it through a paragraph without losing it. It’s especially worse because I’ve recently read Robert E Howard’s original Conan stories before reading this majestic travesty.

Here's a book called "Venom Blades."

the last thread about this book was pretty cozy. There's so much wrong with Khaw's prose and characters. Apparently she worked for Ubisoft, and it's exactly what you would expect a novel from a Ubisoft writer to be.

I forget the name of it, but it was some chinese webnovel that was considered one of the 4 most infamously bad wuxia webnovels. I think it was called something like "on thunder mountain". It was written by a kid and most of the chapter was him raging on comments. It was translated a long time ago.
