This book was surprising. I didn't expect to love it as much as I did, to end up crying and aching alongside these characters. I just love the style this is written in, the switching of POVS in interview format really gives perspective and plays into the unreliable aspect of first person in a way that I thoroughly enjoy. We see everyone remembering things differently due to drugs, alcohol, emotions, etc and it really helps illuminate these characters and their relationships. It was like a giant puzzle that could never truly be solved because each piece belonged to a different, separate puzzle. The characterization was just so complex, so intricately and beautifully done. It served as a reminder that not everyone is perfect and not everything is one sided and that it doesn't have go be right in only one way. Just absolutely amazing writing.
