Can't remember the name of the book but decades ago, as a teen who felt I was now too grown up for YA books I attempted to start reading books from the (not sexual) "adult" section of my local library. The first one I read had a family (dad, mom, college age daughter) who ended up stranded in a forest with a cannibal cult in it. The mom and daughter get k****d off and/or kidnapped (I think the daughter eventually escaped?)
The dad, who it's been implied has incestuous feelings towards his daughter, at the very end of the book leaves the forest alongside a 13 year old girl member of the cannibal cult he "befriended" (who it's implied he will have a sexual relationship with and I think also that men/boys in the cult have had s*x with her but I could be misremembering that)
Said little girl was kidnapped by the cult at like 7 years old when her parents' car crashed nearby. During a famine time, the cult *cut off & ate one of her arms*. However, at one point the girl cheerily informs the dad that that's okay because... life with the cannibal cult still beats *having to go to school*.
Needless to say I "nope'd" the f**k out of the adult section of the library and dived gratefully back into YA.
