To go along with the content warnings; there is explicit mention of all of those things, though it is told through a female lens and dealt with quite well; there are infuriating moments that are there purposefully to illustrate examples of very real things that happen to survivors of SA and other violence/abuse

It’s definitely more of a thriller. I enjoyed it. The dual pov/timeline is definitely interesting and makes the book more engaging
