I'm giving two stars because I was compelled to keep reading, but overall I was very disappointed.

The story is told from Irene’s POV and bounced between past and present. This works well to give an intimate look at Irene and Luce’s experience. You see their spectrum of highs and lows and deeply ache for them.
Absolutely nothing is sugarcoated in this book. The women experience tremendous loss, pain, and judgment. It’s also a moving portrait of the fine line between friendship and dependency. The ending is especially gut-wrenching with a somber, important message about closure and our healthcare system.
Bewilderness is a tough read, but I learned a lot and I’m grateful the @aspenwords Longlist put this in my radar.
