I also enjoyed how Gaitskill further explores the 'friendship' between Margot and Quinn, as well as Carolina and Quinn. It's easy to assume a moral high ground when viewing these cases from a third person perspective, but I really wouldn't know how I would react if something happened to someone close to me that I trust. Would it be right to view Margot and Carolina as enablers? Again, no easy answers for this, which tbh frustrates me so much.
