Have you ever had a dream with elaborate detail and many moving pieces and you could not find the words to describe it to someone else? That is how this book feels. It will stick with me, the characters, the trauma and the indescribable feelings that I have developed from it. I’m not sure how the author was able to string the sentences together to make this a whole cohesive novel, but I’m glad to have read it.
