Great build-up, even greater execution. Horrific. Fernanda Melchior can certainly fucking write.

read the content warnings before you even consider picking up this book. Heavy topics don't really deter me but I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. I understand why some enjoy this but it's an absoulte no from me. stay safe out there x
