Every trigger warning for this book, but I finished it in one sitting. The human mind is so complex and knowing people can and do suffer like those in this book is heartbreaking. Check in on your friends and don’t be afraid to ask for help ❤️

Honestly the only reason this book didn’t get 5 stars is I find it hard to read (or in this case hear) about people’s traumas, and also sometimes it felt like a textbook. But an excellent twist that I did not see coming!!!!
