It isn't an easy read - Vern is definitely a morally grey main character who can be unlikeable at times, but she's also incredibly sympathetic, and you are always rooting for her to finally achieve peace, both with herself and her situation.
All in all, an excellent book, and I will definitely pick up more of Solomon's work.

usually i can guess where book twists are going to be, but this one suprised me while still making sense.
definitely head the content warnings on this one as a lot of the topics are quite heavy, but the topics were handled with care in a purposeful way, not just trauma porn
