Wasn't a fan of the MAP-ish undertones between Leviticus and Xochi. There's no excusing or writing away that age gap by qualifying the younger character as a "nOt lIKe oThEr giRlS" type!
On top of romanticizing and utilizing trauma as a plot devise, this book was a freaking tome to get through. 69 chapters all to end at a morally reprehensible ending sold to the reader as a rosy-colored fairytale? No thanks.
