A great book surrounding grief, desperation, the difficulty of moving forward and the dangers of not being able to let go. I knew it wasn't him from the get go but it still broke my heart in the end more for him. She went after what she wished to see and didn't listen to everything showing her the reality and in the end instead of helping her son the choice she made is making him suffer. It was a 4 star simply because there wasn't enough exploration into the boyfriend and why he was so chill with everything. There is supportive and there is this man. I wish there was some more I to his thought process or even if he himself was under a spell.
Graphic: Blood, Grief, Body horror, Suicide, Self harm, and Child death
Moderate: Infertility
