man thank god that’s over. this could have been about 200 pages shorter but honestly idk if it could’ve salvaged the writing, particularly the dialogue yikes. also tell me why it got borderline john wick towards the end 🤌 crazy that ultimately the difficult subject matter was the least difficult thing about this experience. ALSO WHY SO MUCH TIME DEVOTED TO DESCRIBING GUNS, WHICH WERE JUST ALL OVER THIS BOOK what in the hell

This is a dark f-ed up story. But it really was a great read. Beautiful writing of an awful situation. I recommend this to my friends who loved The Vegetarian, by Han Kang or Where the Crawdads Sing, by Delia Owens. This book has stayed with me for years.
