Xing's pic from his review of [b:In These Words Volume 1 13549765 In These Words, Volume 1 Kichiku Neko https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1387548728s/13549765.jpg 19116141] is perfect for this story as well. I'm still too stunned to put my thoughts into words or even choose a rating! It's not lower than a 4 though.UPDATE: I'm going to settle on 4.5 stars. This is an incredibly disturbing read, but it is very well done. It was interesting to read from the perspective of an insane person, to see why he did the things he did (even if they didn't make logical sense to me). The only thing that would have made it more disturbing would be if they hadn't been complete strangers and Uriel had helped raise him as a boy. Of course, if that were the case, Gabriel wouldn't have done what he did.UPDATE #2: Apparently I was so traumatized by the prior events of the book, I failed at reading comprehension, missing an important part of the plot near the end. I had lowered my rating by half a star because I thought there was a plot hole that I now know didn't even exist, so I'm now raising it to 5 stars.
