challenging dark emotional inspiring reflective sad tense fast-paced

5.0

5 stars is not a high enough rating. This book was haunting, heart-wrenching, depressing, aggravating and beautifully written. This book made me slam it shut and start scream sobbing, this book made me reflect on my own relationships, this book made me feel every single emotion. I read this book in one sitting it was absolutely PERFECT and so so necessary. Please read it if you're able to, be mindful of all of the content warnings please it is by no means an easy read.
