Beautiful writing, but hard to follow at times. It took me a while to get into it. Not a light read.

Tbh I hated this book and had I not had to read it for class I would have DNFed it very early on. The time skips back and forth with no warning and it’s hard to follow. There is also absolutely no reason to graphically depict the sexual assault of a child!
