Book 127 towards my goal of 290! 4/5 stars does this YA Contemporary read. Whew this one is heavy, just like all of Ellen's books. There are trigger warnings for this one, so please check those before reading if you need to. More family drama! And we get an extra perspective in this book as well. Love the cover! Loved the dual narration! Highly recommend!
Graphic: Gun violence and Domestic abuse
Moderate: Rape
