A hard read. The subject matter was hard, and it felt jarring and the amount of events in the book made me feel like I was bracing myself on a roller coaster. I don't usually shy away from hard for me.  topics but this was a bit much for me As an audio book, this was hard for me to follow the descriptions of things like guns, or medical procedures. The writing was good, and obviously got me interewted in how it would turn out, just a lot of trigger warnings on this one.

i am surprised by how invested i was in the book. watching turtle come to her own realization that she needs to get away. her friendship with brett and jacob. brett actually genuinely taking a bullet for her. jacob respecting her wish of not seeing each other for a year. anna being her new guardian. her sense of affection for cayenne. it's everything that made her leave that made this book worth it imo
