Spoiler
I'm not really interested in the entire "deal with a devil" side of the story and desperation and the deals people would be willing to make is a major major theme of this book. But it's also a book about what people do with time when it's short and when it's long and that I found compelling, but underdeveloped. Also underdeveloped but inherently more interesting to me than anything devilish--how a woman survives over time. In the end, I think I want this to have been two parallel stories--Addie's and Henry's side by side as foils by chance--with more on how the two people lived their circumstances rather than how they lived in spite of or because of the devil. Can't say I recommend it. Can't say the hours reading it were a waste.Moderate: Rape, Gaslighting, Sexual assault, Sexual content, Sexual violence, Grief, Suicidal thoughts, Addiction, Alcohol, Suicide attempt, and Terminal illness
