5.0
One of the most well written, poignant books I've ever read, do not read it.
Graphic: Animal cruelty, Animal death, Emotional abuse, Fatphobia, Infidelity, Racism, Rape, Sexism, Sexual assault, Sexual content, Sexual violence, Violence, Grief, and Colonisation
Sexual violence is at the forefront of this book. It may not be gratuitous (depending on opinion) but it is a major theme throughout.
