Check out the trigger warnings if you haven’t already!!
I hadn’t checked them for myself so frantically I was taken aback by some parts.

I am hypercritical of fiction that is going to make SA a major or minor plot point, this book doesn’t receive any less criticism.
While I thought the flaws of Beartown and its inhabitants were enthralling and kept me hooked, I couldn’t help but feel like the SA lack of resolve seemed weak. However maybe that’s the point? Overall was a decent book but a little hard to push through at times. If you like insight into many characters lives, a morally gray environment, and, lest we forget, hockey; this book may be for you. Definitely an out of my comfort zone read.
