Jude is one of characters that genuinely deserves so much better that the reader cant help but love, and the relationships he makes with his friends throughout the story is amazing and feels genuine.
While i enjoyed this book, this is one of the very few books i will not recommend. Its unnecessarily graphic, and sometimes those are the only scenes that have descriptions. Its almost just a 800 page trauma dump.
Otherwise, its a good book, but not one i will be reading again.
