Wow. This book speaks to some internal truths in all of us: Our desire to be loved, our desire to find a place to belong. Our desire for someone to the worst of us and still choose to come back.
Some things of note: This book jumps around on the timeline a bit. The first couple of times it happened I didn't notice and got confused. There are a lot of characters to keep track of.
CW: There are instances of coerced sex and underage sex.
Overall, I enjoyed this book. It was thought-provoking and well put together. 4/5.
