marnienicole's review

I’m under 5% there was an on page rape. I should have checked the trigger warnings but I wasn’t expecting a book claiming to be out loud funny to have such a graphic seen before we even really get to know the characters. I tried to keep reading but nope, the whole it’s the 1950s and everyone is misogynistic and now I have to make my way through it was not appealing. And it sucks because I really liked the narrators performance and the writing style at first.

This was a heartbreakingly beautiful story that I can barely put into words. We have come so far but the fight for equality (specifically for BIPOC, Trans and queer women) is no where near over. I loved the different POVs and Six Thirty is the greatest dog who has ever lived ❤️
