I think the book tackled some difficult issues well and I could identify with some of the complex feelings of the characters. I appreciated the honesty in it.

I was surprised by how much I liked this! I loved the atmosphere and I want to dive into book #2 immediately. I actually really loved Alex and the relationship she's building with Dawes and Turner. I'd really encourage people to check out content warnings before heading into this one - there are a lot of quite messed up scenes and they get very explicit.
