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.
