The gaslighting, the jealousy, controlling behaviour, abusive patterns, "happy" moments to overcompensate, the physicial, emotional and sexual harrassment, the consequences... they are all difficult themes to tackle and read, but Carmen María Machado does a marvelous job.
My only complaint is that i'm not the biggest fan of the second person pov in books. Nonetheless, a harrowing, necessary read!
