DID NOT FINISH: 30%

Oh this book was oddly gross and descriptive. There were things described i could have done without, ALL the characters were annoying, even the kid. I skipped to the end and my face was just cringing the whole time. Lol 

Crazy story i wish the story was fully focused on Whitney since the other characters were bland in comparison, still a wild read and a fresh take on a mother son relationship.

Blunt, honest, devastating read. Introspective but in a refreshing and realistic way that I find a lot of books don’t capture. Been recommending this to anyone who will listen!!

3.5 ⭐️- I adore her writing style but this type of format where the story follows a group of people sometimes doesn’t work for me. I enjoyed this but didn’t love it.
