This was very much not a book for me. Don't get me wrong, the simple writing was beautiful and absorbing in its own way, but the content was trigger after trigger. Really: look at the content warnings carefully. There were graphic depictions of suicide, animal death, murder, pregnancy and childbirth, blood, vomit, and rape in just about every chapter; you can't escape them.
