The female lead has autism spectrum disorder and her characteristics relating to that are described in detail. The main character also goes to therapy. A significant time in the book is spent on discussions of medical illness and chronic/terminal illness. I believe "toxic relationship" is an appropriate tag for describing the relationship between Anna and her sister Priscilla.jadatrack's review against another edition

That’s the best way I can describe this book.
Please please please read the TW before you pick this one up. It really caught me off guard.
