By far one of the best books I’ve ever read. The characters are incredible, the pacing is perfect, and the situations the characters are put through are extremely impactful.

Minor: Animal death, Child death, Cursing, Death, Homophobia, Blood, Excrement, Medical content, Grief, and Classism

The hard r N word is used very liberally at times and a character is a racist caricature (though this is commented on within the book and she’s that way due to certain events)
