My feelings on this book fluctuated a lot as I read it. Not quite love/hate, closer to like/dislike. I like the concept and when it ended I was left feeling overall satisfied, but I don't feel like I really connected with any of the characters, and I didn't really enjoy the writing style. There were some moments where I felt very understood by the writer and highlighted a sentence. There were other moments where I had to reread a paragraph over and over thinking to myself, "What is even being conveyed here?" I think this all balances out to 3 stars, which is to say I thought it was just good.
Graphic: Abandonment, Sexism, and Misogyny
Minor: Blood
