• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? It's complicated

• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.75

Raw look at the interwoven dynamics of a familiar in dysfunction. Enjoyed the realistic characters and the unflinching look at addiction and trauma. Dinged .25 for no uplifting redemptive arc, but flawless otherwise.

Hey what the actual Fuck. 
I don’t think I can add stars to this review because I genuinely don’t know what to rate it as out of 5.
