I was not a fan of the audiobook, but the book itself is powerful. The narrator couldn't find their voice, and edits were obvious and low quality. The poetry I think suffered because of that.

Otherwise this is a very intense book about a 16-17 year old girl going through a crisis of identity, belonging, and their unfortunate discovery of drugs which turned their life upside-down.

Not for the faint of heart.
