One of my favourite reads this year. It had dark moments that made me cringe, and heartfelt ones that echoed within me. One of Lee Winter's best, I think. The twists as well - amazingly executed.

kharlan3's review against another edition

Gotta be honest, this one was tough for me but IDK why. It felt like the book was pretty (maybe unintentionally) fatphobic- lots of negative descriptions of fat people. overall, it just felt really long in a way i struggled with.

Well... This book is surprising, I would say. I'm not even sure if it sits right with me. But if this doesn't mean that it's good - the way it makes me wonder - than I don't know what does.

Dubious consent in the first sex scene in chapter 1. I stopped after that.
