Okay so I literally couldn’t put this book down. The writing is so captivating and everything that happens in the plot is so fcked up… I just wasn’t able to imagine how June was gonna get out of all that. Every time it seemed she was kinda fixing things she did something that ruined it all again (i feel that) and things just got worse and worse. I can’t stop recommending this book to everybody I know I adored it so much 5 stars seem not enough to rate it

This book achieved what I most appreciate about stories: grey characters. All of the characters are flawed and human. Well done
