Would be fascinating to study, and even fascinating to reread: the abrupt ending certainly had me jumping immediately back to the opening.
Plenty of ambiguity, as well as foreshadowing, and endless musing on hypothetical scenarios. Gorgeous descriptive language. Lots of mystery, and drawn out reveals of information. Written for the journey of coming to understand, not just arrival at the destination.
Moderate: Murder, Death, Suicide, and Grief
Minor: Colonisation, Cultural appropriation, Domestic abuse, Alcohol, Classism, Forced institutionalization, Gun violence, Incest, and Infidelity

It may have been the audio format, but was difficult at times to know when the narrator was imagining scenarios or if it was actually happening.
