I'm in the minority that likes the second half better than the first. If thr content bothers you for part 1, try to make itbto part 2. That's the revenge /action half.

This was a fast read and yet I wouldn’t say I loved it. I could’ve used a trigger warning about the drug use before reading, if I’d had it I might not have read the book at all
