I read this book without knowing anything about the content based on a TikTok review. I regret that I did not read the content warnings before hand.

Mad Honey was unexpected and wonderful. It is difficult to read at times, because it is honest and raw. It will possibly challenge you, but in a way that everyone would benefit from. It is a book that will leave a lasting mark on me, and I would definitely recommend others to read.
