This book is wild. It is also incredibly sad. A deep dive into a mentally ill family.

I went into this book pretty blind and did not realize itโs more of a horror-psychological book. The book contains three narrators describing their sister/wife/SIL downfall into anorexia and schizophrenia. I get the author was trying to write about how humans cannot be innocent being but the book was uncomfortable. Booktok did me dirty with this recommendation ๐
Highly considered DNF, but the book is very short
