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.
