challenging dark sad tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix

While the start is a bit slow, the story picks up pace halfway in. It was definitely a good choice on my part to go with the audiobook, and turn up the speed (I did this from the beginning). However, I must say, this book has ALL OF THE TRIGGER WARNINGS, like any trigger warning you can think of is probably in there somewhere. Please be careful if you, unlike me, have a heart.

I had tried to read this book a few times before I finally got through it, but it was all worth it in the end. The entire story changes so much throughout that it feels like you're kinda reading several different books. You end up really wanting to know what happens next so I can't wait to start reading the next book.

Second time. Still bloody loved it.

Reading for the third time and I still love it but there is excessive mentioning of sexual violence.
