I think to truly enjoy this novel, there's no way you could have any real life experiences with sexual/physical/emotional trauma.
There is so much that could have been good about this, but it is completely overshadowed by the author's incessant need to traumatize the everliving fuck out of the main character.

it did in fact wreck me and my mental health. i didn’t expect much from the book, but the writing is incredible and the plot is so interesting that once i really got into the book, i couldn’t put it down and binged it in a week.
for anyone that has struggled with mental health issues, especially self harm in the past, please be ready to relive some of your experiences, since the book goes into graphic detail. please only read it when you trust yourself enough to not let it make you fall back into past patterns.
this is a must-read i will from now on recommend to anyone who wants to read something heartbreaking and that could haunt them for a while. and lastly, Fuck this book man (i sobbed so hard)

It's slow, it trudges, and it hits so hard right in the heart. It's awful. I knew it would be, but I was so compelled to give it the time it deserved. It's simply a modern classic that should never be experienced by anyone.
