Oh my god. This one is not for the faint of heart in terms of gruesome descriptions and body horror. I almost DNF. You’ve been warned! 🪱 

I do think the message came across, of adults being clueless and putting themselves above kids and the complicated nature of boyhood friendships. I just don’t know that I’d recommend this to a friend or read anything else like this again.
