Truly a masterfully written story, the narrative transitioned from one character to another seamlessly and it was amazing to witness. The characters are all flawed, the burden of family and societal values destroying their relationships.
Graphic: Death, Suicide, and Death of parent
Moderate: Gun violence and Racism
Minor: Eating disorder
