Spoiler
the repeating experiences of the main character in the first book and the slight changes that are made to their character over time, such as the growing aggressiveness and paranoia that fits both with the theme of a guilty murderer and dementia patient, and the descriptor for the sudden burst of inspiration that the man gets, and the product of this inspiration. The particular segment had me even wanting for the section to be true so I would be able to read the result of the described book, but alas such a book does not exist (to my knowledge).Graphic: Death, Death of parent, Dementia, Domestic abuse, Murder, Schizophrenia/Psychosis , and Sexual content

Lots of triggers so be cautious when reading in case you have any of those <3 stay safeareaderheart's review against another edition

I really found the explorations of family incredibly fascinating and also the characters’ relationships to one another. Kim constantly drives the readers and the characters to dig into these familial relationships and question further.
