Started this late last night. Still haven't finished the stand, but it's such a long and hard read that I've started listening to the audiobook. So I decided to start The Butterfly Garden.

Yandernarcet- a narcet label relating to having NPD and being a yandere, or a "yandere" narcissistic archetype. This may or may not be affected by other -dere types and user may or may not have comorbid BPD

One who uses this term might feel as though their NPD manifests through obsession, putting people on pedestals, being full of love and admiration (but possibly only for that one person or a few people), intense jealousy, and/or thoughts of others being "special" or "chosen".

[IMAGE ID: a flag with 5 even stripes colored: dark pink, medium pink, light pink, red, and black on one side, and black, red, light pink, medium pink, dark pink on the other. Through the middle, a diagonal line made up of 3 stripes colored blueish purple, dark pinkish-purple, and blueish purple separates the two sides. In the center of the diagonal line is a light purple circle with two darker, pinkish-purple hearts in the middle. Each stripe on the diagonal line is outlined in an even darker purple. /. END ID]

This… f*ing… book… 🦋📖👮🏽‍♂️👯‍♀️

Okay, so I’ve been reading a lot this year and I came across with a lot of great ones… But this one… when I closed the book my first words were “holy sh*t” while my tears were falling down my face.

This is a masterpiece. I know I cannot recommend it to everyone because it has a lot of tw’s (sexual abuse, violence, kidnapping and child abuse) but this was the best psychological thriller I’ve ever read. The story line is amazing and very complex and Maya’s character is so brave and strong and she’s so smart. It’s just amazing. There are a lot of Edgar Allan Poe indications and every time I reached one, I stopped reading and opened up my Poe tome and read the whole poem and then continued with the novel.

Some people stay broken. Some pick up the pieces and put them back together with all the sharp edges showing.

The Butterfly Garden - Dot Hutchison

Read By: Sylvia

Completed: Aug. 31, 2022

Trigger warnings: Honestly I’d have to list what ISN’T a trigger in this book… do not read if you are a minor or have any common triggers related to sexual assault, kidnapping, and etc.

Summary: In a beautiful garden, a man keeps beautiful butterflies, otherwise known as women he kidnaps and marks as his own. Told through the lens of a survivor of the garden.

- writing style: solid 3/5

- plot: 4.5/5

- character development: 4/5

- overall: 5/5

Originally, I was not going to finish this book. The writing started off, in my opinion, very weak, but improved around page 30 or so. Points were docked in this regard due to characters being predictable or acting in ways they never would have given their profession, or other aspects that just weren’t strong at the beginning. The author seemed to notice her weaknesses and work past them, however. This book is incredibly dark and descriptive with that, and kept me fascinated in such a grotesque way all the way through. I would definitely recommend this book to adult readers who can handle extremely triggering content.

My thoughts on: The Butterfly Garden by Dot Hutchison [Spoilers ahead !]

★★★★☆

This book will hold a special place in my heart. I give it four stars only because it took me so long to get into and start, nothing against Dot or her writing. So many people had said so many things about it and what drew me to it that is was meant to be disturbing, supposed to put you on edge. And while I think maybe some of the people may have been overrating a bit, this book surprised me til the very end. I felt like I was curious right along with the rest of the girls. Strangely there was points where I found myself attracted to The Gardener, only because of how he would treat the girls when not r*ping or killing them.

The differences with Desmond and Avery nice to see, two extremes yet making their father proud was their common ground. One of my favorite scenes, because it did make me chuckle, was with Desmond, Inara, and Avery. In the scene Inara and Desmond are having sex in her room and having a fun intimate moment. In the middle Inara sees something out of the corner of her eye and Avery is there jacking himself. Inara does her best to not laugh at Desmond being embarrassed and Avery beliving that he has, "as much right to her as you do". Though a serious book, it was funny to see a moment where two siblings are fighting about a 'mundane' thing.

The twist end with Sophia being the escaped butterfly AND Inara/Maya knowing the entire time STUNNED me. I had to do a walk around my living room because I was shocked. I do wish that the end would add a bit of the trial or even an epilogue with the sentencing of Desmond and The Gardener. I wasn't a huge fan of how Keely, a twelve year old girl, was r*ped and brought into the Garden. However, playing devil's advocate, it makes sense that she was not taken back because The Gardener was terrified that she would rat him out, a staple that the man will never change. Of course, it was also needed so that Desmond would actually get off his ass and call the police.

This book was really good and when I finally locked in a read it, it was hard to put down. I highly recommend.
