orangedork's review against another edition

Well written book but incredibly dark. Not fun dark. It has a lot of realistic SA and child abuse. It got too graphic and depressing for me that I had to stop. Some people might enjoy that, but I felt like the book was written in bad taste.

This book is incredibly disturbing. Please check TW. I’m honestly considering whether or not it is a book I want to keep on my shelf because I don’t want to be reminded of imagery.
