LOOK UP TRAUMA WARNINGS before reading this book!
I gave this book a high star rating because it is a deeply moving and well written book about friendship, life and love- focusing on one character in particular who’s horrifying past slowly unfolds.
I read someone else’s review saying they wouldn’t necessarily recommend this book and I feel similarly in that it deals with incredibly difficult subject matter.
This book was heart wrenchingly sad, disturbing, and at times beautiful.
