- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
3.25
An enjoyable enough read, though the last third is all over the place in terms of narrative and twists - by the 3rd or 4th twist, I was no longer shocked but rather awaiting the next that would undo previous assumptions and not in a good way? Still, good for a beach read or a weekend.
Graphic: Confinement, Death, and Death of parent
Moderate: Suicide attempt, Toxic relationship, and Pregnancy
Minor: Drug abuse
