I tried reading this book shoot a year ago but put it down because of how heavy it was. I picked it back up and finished it in a few days because it was so welling written, raw, tense, and real. This might be the best portrayal of mental illness, addiction, and a toxic relationship I’ve ever read. However, due to the content, I’d recommend checking the extensive trigger warnings.

The read left me satisfied. It's a dark book covering a range of topics from homelessness to identity, with a large group of characters that all equally have their own hopes and dreams. Beautiful storytelling that made me feel for every character, and the ending leaves just enough to the imagination that a second book isn't necessary.
