3.0

this is a complex book with a deep writing style. you will need to concentrate at times to be able to grasp it but it is very good! Frances (main character and only pov) can get very irritating at times I find. yet it's good because it allows you to bond more slowly with her as if she were a real person, and she also knows she isn't a perfect person always in the right, which is refreshing.

Content Warnings

Graphic: Alcoholism and Mental illness

Moderate: Panic attacks/disorders and Self harm

Minor: Vomit and Police brutality

most of it is mild, maybe one scene or two, others there is a more consistent theme of the topic for example the self harm. it's not incredibly detailed or talked about a lot but it is there.
