4 stars because NO END?!!? I did not like that lol I really wanted to know what Christopher was gonna have to say.
Ouuuu!! I have so much I can say about this book. All in all, I was very invested in how the story was going to end. I also think I may check out another one of Lucinda Berrys novels. It was a lot more graphic than I was expecting and it definitely needed some trigger warnings but the plot lowkey ate.
Graphic: Animal cruelty, Child abuse, Death, Mental illness, Violence, and Murder
Minor: Domestic abuse and Grief
