edit: i'm bumping it to five stars, i can't stop thinking about this book

this book was awesome, i loved the magical realism and the aesthetic of it, but it was way too disturbing for me to rate it five stars. be mindful of the trigger warnings, there were some scenes that left me reeling.

I really liked this book overall. The story was super intense and engaging, and it sucked me in right away. The character relationships were really deep and interesting.
The only thing I didn’t like was that the gore was a bit too much for me, to the point where I felt nauseous during the last third of the book.
