The Author's writing itself was very good, I just couldn't connect to the story very much. It didn't reveal as many answers to the plot as I was hoping. Perhaps that was the point, but it wasn't my cup of tea. I'm still glad I read it, though. I wouldn't never have read something like this without the recommendation.
Graphic: Blood, Gore, Body horror, Death, Forced institutionalization, and Murder
Moderate: Terminal illness, Injury/Injury detail, Animal death, and Abandonment
