Outstanding. Loved this. Utterly obsessed with Irina and her distorted view of herself and her world. The whole book is deeply disturbing, told from Irina's perspective who is an incredible unreliable narrator. As her mental health deteriorates, her substance abuse worsens and the line between reality and imagination blurs. Did she commit murder or was it all imagined? That's up to the reader to decide and I have a feeling I'm going to be thinking about this one for a long time.
Moderate: Rape, Eating disorder, Vomit, and Sexual violence
Minor: Drug use and Alcohol
