A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara

sad slow-paced

5.0

One of the most emotionally intense books I’ve read in a long time. I recommend it, but fair warning that finishing this book requires serious commitment. There are multiple mentions of abuse and self-harm,  although the author did a good job of telling a story about surviving trauma without veering into the lane of trauma porn. At its core, this book is a story about love in all its forms: friendship, familial, romantic.
