This book just had so much going on, and whilst I’ll be the first to admit I generally prefer books where nothing happens, I’ll try to be objective and just complain about the gaping plot holes.
This book was at its best when describing how we women learn to weaponise our bodies from childhood. I wish everyone would read that segment in essay form.
If you’re looking for a beach read with drama, romance & mystery -then fair enough. Unfortunately, November is emo Autumn sad time. Perhaps I just read it in the wrong season.
Moderate: Fatphobia, Suicide, Murder, and Abandonment
