Loveable characters:

Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
Diversity: Autistic MC , mental health, intrusive thoughts, gender dysphoria
Queerness : Queer Mc , trans masc mc , trans fem sc , non binary sc
Content warning: Blood , death , grief , cannibalism ( this is right at the but BUTS ITS GRAFFIC) oh and bugs - so many bugs
I was going to mark this read as a 4 stars, but then I read it all in one Sitting and the ending had me REELING from the book . No joke. I gasped and covered the screen so I didn't have to read more accidentally. This book is graphic and drives its point home HARD. IT cracks open some really serious points from gender dysphoria, mental illness , the struggles of the autistic community, and even graphic intrusive thoughts that are rarely touched upon in literature
This book was kinda like a crash - you know you shouldn't be looking, but you can't look away.
I have two other of this author's books on my tbr. However, this is my first from him -
This book is one I would recommend but to select people - its dark , tense and I feel you have to be a type of person ( queer and mentally ill) to be able to relate or understand the mc
Bravo, honestly- it's been a while since I read a 300-page book in one sitting
