There are some interesting twists in this, but in general it was an overall bummer. The narrator is unlikable, and I know that’s the point, but listening to this book always soured my mood. It is also one of those books that ties up all the plot points neatly with a bow at the end. Very happily ever after.
Graphic: Suicide attempt, Suicidal thoughts, and Suicide
Moderate: Incest, Homophobia, Animal death, and Medical trauma
