2.0
Not the best written book but interesting enough to keep me invested in what was going to happen. Decent pace until the ending, the peak was quick and the aftermath was too perfect. Disappointing ending really.
Moderate: Medical trauma
Minor: Domestic abuse, Infidelity, Miscarriage, Rape, Toxic relationship, and Violence
Miscarriage only mentioned once and seemed random, like it was thrown in for the sake of it. Same with the minor rape scene - book wouldn't have changed if it wasn't included.
