I read this for my Literary Studies class and I do NOT regret it. This book was so emotionally rewarding as the protagonist, Carmen Maria Machado, was taking the reader through an impactful journey. However, no matter how much I really enjoyed this book, I will not recommend this to someone who cannot handle stories involving emotional abuse. This book was hardcore and some may think not, but I truly am glad I had a wonderful Prof. to help navigate me and my peers through this book and Carmen’s story.

The writing is so beautiful and was very easy for me to read, even though at first I was a bit nervous about it being written in second person pov I found it actually help suck me into the book.
There were multiple times throughout reading when I was wanting to stop and underline bits and save quotes because they were so beautiful or understandable or relatable, even for me who’s never been in an abusive relationship. This is the kind of book where I think I could go back and reread over and over and still find something new.
