I think I would have given this book a higher rating if it didn’t leave me feeling so heavy afterwards. I felt so sick to my stomach hearing about
all of the grape and the human testing.
granted it did happen in real life but I wasn’t ready and maybe that was my fault for not checking the trigger warnings but I would say it was good. 

I think Rin’s character developed really slowly, almost toooo slowly tbh.
