This book deals a lot with a codependent relationship and two boys decent into insanity. It’s a mix of an adventure but also a psych thriller, in a way. The book also has mixed media elements such as photographs and police reports, and as the story gets darker, the pages literally get darker. Going grey white, to grey, to black. It’s a beautiful read that deals with mental health, parental neglect, and unhealthy relationships and coping mechanisms. Keep all of this in mind if you decide to read this, but personally I thought it was a beautiful book.
