This book was very difficult to sit down and read and I’m pretty sure I had a permanent frown on during the entirety of this book. It’s not easy to read and you have to put it down at times for processes. But the writing is phenomenal, the themes are incredibly important to things that are happening in this world, and the characters are infuriating but very tangible and real. This book will mess you up a bit and I don’t think everyone can read it, but it is a fantastic book….that I’m happy I’m done reading.
