Well written, but descriptive. I would recommend a trigger warning for this read. The main character has cut herself extensively in the past and has urges to do so throughout the book. There is also quite a bit of alcohol, drugs, and sex as Camille navigates her emotions and relationships throughout the book.mabelsyrup's review against another edition
