4.5 stars.  I love the way this author write his characters. They seem so real and relatable. 

5 stars for writing 
4 stars for the story 

There are some very disturbing events which include a sexual assault and there is a lot of very strong language. The behaviors are certainly not condoned but they are present and quite graphic at times
