it feels almost like a middle grade book in the beginning but i think this is because the author is starting the character off at a young age and the book is solely in the girls perspective. i love that the book is set in england, and that the mc speaks all the english slang, i relate to this a lot. i love the illustrations and the uplifting elements of them. nearer to the end of the book, it started to get very dark, for example there is child abuse, animal abuse etc so make sure to check the trigger warnings for the book just to be sure!! overall i think the author handled these topics quite well! i didn’t LOVE the book, but i liked it enough to finish it lmao
