There is one graphic scene depicting the reversal of a drug overdose, including medicinal injections and the use of a stomach pump. Discussion of delusions as a result of schizophrenia. Several scenes take place in a mental health facility, where prescription pills are given. Period-typical scenes of smoking.

4.5

This book was impossible to put down. It wasn’t without flaws (pacing felt off at times, weird twist like 80% in that I didn’t particularly enjoy) but I love it all the same. Jane Quinn is an addicting character who you want to see succeed despite her faults. Songs in Ursa Major is the perfect book for fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid who want more messy fictional rockstars in their life. An immediate addition to my favorites shelf!!!
