A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara
0.0
Genuinely, the worst book I’ve ever read. Misleading with the opening making you think you’re going to see 4 guys go from graduating college to maturing in the real world. It then turns to focus on one specific character who is competing with every fictional character on the worst backstory I’ve ever seen. Torture porn olympics to the point it gets comedic at times. This alongside the author’s take on therapy; skip this one. There should a trigger warning on the cover of this book.
Graphic: Adult/minor relationship, Alcoholism, Body shaming, Bullying, Child abuse, Chronic illness, Death, Domestic abuse, Drug abuse, Drug use, Eating disorder, Emotional abuse, Gore, Blood, Grief, Car accident, Gaslighting, and Alcohol
Massive Trigger Warning. Disgusted by this whole book and its message
