My actual rating is a 3.75. This is such a hard read at times...please check triggers as it will get uncomfortable. However, I pressed on due to my desire to know who she chooses in the end. Be prepared for a lot of time sequence jumping (the idea is to build back story to how they got the present) and some of it can be a little confusing. Some say they are confused on how it all ends, but I think if you read/listen closely to the last few details it is clear.
Graphic: Rape and Sexual assault
Moderate: Death and Infidelity
Minor: Miscarriage
