I really did not like this. I should have DNFed. I did not like any of the characters. I thought the plot was stupid. I didn't enjoy the message (if there is one). And I really disliked the way Beau was discussed. I found the whole thing infuriating. I would never recommend this.
Graphic: Misogyny, Racial slurs, Racism, Toxic relationship, Violence, Xenophobia, Murder, Colonisation, and Classism
thecreature's review against another edition
fast-paced
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
Certainly the kind of book that makes you think “what the hell is wrong with these people?” about the characters, and maybe about the author too. Very similar energy to We Need to Talk About Kevin.
Moderate: Chronic illness, Death, Violence, Murder, and Colonisation
Minor: Alcohol
