4.5 stars. I love the way this author write his characters. They seem so real and relatable.
5 stars for writing
4 stars for the story
There are some very disturbing events which include a sexual assault and there is a lot of very strong language. The behaviors are certainly not condoned but they are present and quite graphic at times
