I inhaled this book, downed it, devoured it in a frenzied few days. I am a mother of three and sleep is tenuous at our house, yet I stayed up late reading until the wee hours 3 nights in a row. I cringed, I sobbed, at one point while listening to the audiobook actually stood up and paced. It was excellent.
It also needs trigger warnings for absolutely everything. Seriously, I don't even know how to classify some of the things that happened in here.
