I struggled to read this in the beginning but the more I read the more I loved it. The story felt very raw and complex. Some of the characters are unlikeable and some aren't pleasant but you learn to like them anyways. I love the flipping between present day and the past. I especially loved it's takes on legends/myths/mythology. It's hard to describe this book in a way that does it justice. Look up content warnings, I've included some but there may be more!
