Wish this book came with reader warnings for trauma responses (which start to happen part way through the book) starts out a bit fun, but as time goes on the story becomes wildly unhinged, and switches from amusing to beyond heartbreaking.
Not sure of this story affected me more because I'm a parent of children/some now adults, or because I have my own traumas and mental health issues. The main characters are all flawed like real people and make the best and worst decisions like we all do.
I read this all in one sitting, started at 11pm and finished at 2 am. The storyline hooks start early with this one and pull all the way through. Heartbreaking all the way through to the end.
