This book genuinely surprised me. I'm not entirely sure what I expected, but it wasn't to be holding back tears at work. Emma is such a good main character. You hate her and love her on every page. 

I'll never recover for the love I have for Earl.

One of my biggest pet peeves for books is when children speak like adults. The book falls into this a few times, but it's such a bizarre story and tone that I barely cared. Every content warning you can imagine, so proceed with caution.

a weird book narrated by a deeply unlikeable character! this didn't quite hit for me but I appreciate the intensity
(and I'm glad I read it so I don't have that eye looking at me from my tbr anymore)
