I loved this writing, the voice needs to be bottled and the main character development was perfection, nothing 8 thought about her at the beginning was true by the end. I noticed slice/line imagery throughout but would love to know the author's intent with that.

injeniouslife's review against another edition

Author drops a hard R twice, no pushback from the characters. Casual homophobia present in many characters. FMC is drugged and raped multiple times. Basically a how-to for anorexia and disordered eating.
