HOLY HELL.
What a twisted ride.
I've never felt so personally involved in the ruin and disgrace of (almost) all the characters - particularly the MC - in a story.
Holy shit.
More thoughts to come soon but I have to say: I had heard great things about Louise O'Neill, I had high hopes... and oh boy were they met. OH BOY.
