3.5
Such a complex character-driven novel. Bennett has a talent of making you simultaneously love and hate a character. Would have loved to have delved further into some of the characters’ pasts and family relationships.
Moderate: Abortion, Sexual assault, and Rape
Minor: Death of parent and Suicide
