Very dark for intended audience. Cannibalism and sexual assault.

Trigger warning: Insinuated sexual assault, war, cannibalism. 

This book was incredibly written, but at times it was almost too painful to continue reading. I think that was what the author was going for, so I do not mean that in any sort of detrimental way; I just think it's important for readers to be aware of it going in. There were times it was borderline brutal, but it beautifully illustrated the importance of being educated about this period of history and doing our best to make sure it never happens again. I'm thankful it was a fast read, and I definitely won't forget it any time soon.
