I have mixed feelings about this book. In the beginning, I really strongly disliked every single character. I especially disliked the main character. I had some theories about the plot that turned out to be true, but it was certainly a wild ride. I'm not sure if I could recommend it. This book was super graphic, full of toxic behaviors. Very unlikeable characters, though there was some character development.
