It does feel a bit too soap-opera-ish at times, with the ways the plot turned, and it's definitely not a book that will resonate with you in any positive way. It's far more likely to leave you with a bitter taste in your mouth, and yet, it is wholly unforgettable.
Graphic: Addiction, Toxic friendship, Toxic relationship, Sexual content, Sexual violence, and Suicidal thoughts
Moderate: Abortion, Adult/minor relationship, and Sexism

although Mathilde has been editing and tweaking Lotto's work for years, managing his money, managing him, her own writing ends up being a failure.What was the message here? That she was only useful with regards to his career? That annoyed me.
