The writing in this is INSANE. It’s disturbing but realistic in how it describes her thought processes as a teenage girl. It’s uncomfortable but relatable somehow. Basically just a girl being groomed but you understand why she makes the decisions she does. Also bonus, good retro late 60s vibes. I got lost in it.
