I don't condone the mom helping her son die (in the eyes of the law, that's 1st-degree murder), however, I completely get what she did it. Mercy killings (I think that's what they're called) are very complicated to me when faced with those scenarios. It really shows you how everything isn't so black and white.Graphic: Child abuse, Child death, Drug use, Suicide, Pedophilia, Drug abuse, Physical abuse, Grief, Suicidal thoughts, Suicide attempt, Violence, Blood, Bullying, Death, Injury/Injury detail, Sexual assault, Self harm, and Sexual violence

This book was so different from anything I've ever read. The reason I'm giving it 5 stars even though it was a hard read is because the author did an amazing job at making me feel things towards the perpetrator that I didn't think were possible. It was so confusing to think one way, but feel another. The chapter before the epilogue made me jaw drop, I didn't see it coming at any point of this book which is always nice. Overall I'm super impressed with the author, I can't wait to check more of their books out.
