For CWs, I want to also specifically say that forced child abandonment is an integral part of Book Eater culture; so it's mentioned a lot in these pages. Really, a lot of what happens to the women in this culture is really not great. So, just, read with care if those topics might hurt your heart. Ok?

The way Dean writes about motherhood, trauma, and dilemma fascinates me. The concept alone is unlike anything I’ve gotten the chance to read, and I really love how devastatingly bittersweet and complex it is. I’d say that a lot of elements of the world of the book eaters resembles Handmaid’s tale, ifykyk.
