listen to the audiobook!!!! i struggle to read prose that’s broken up and styled in the way this book is, so listening to it gave me the full harrowing devastating experience of taking in this story. absolutely crushing story of abuse. don’t expect to finish this and feel good! that’s my cup of tea though and i loved how irish it was so good rating from me
