monstrouscosmos's review against another edition

the early detailed descriptions of

rape and the aftermath

were especially difficult, but there are a lot of TWs even in the 5% I made I through. in reading other reviews that keeps up for the whole of the book, which I can't keep up with. the writing style is very much my vibe, and the author has a lot of interesting things to say! it's just too emotionally difficult of a text for me right now.

challenging dark emotional informative mysterious reflective sad slow-paced

4.0

Don’t listen to the audiobook. Read the words, the narrator is a terrible mismatch to the subject matter.

em_reads_books's review

challenging dark emotional reflective tense

4.5

Intense read that builds in such clever but clearly authentically, deeply felt ways. You don't often see such craft and catharsis in the same piece of writing.
