I don’t know if I’ve ever seen more of *myself* in a book. The descriptions of life in east-coast Canada, living pay check to pay check as a restaurant worker, ugly power-dynamics, toxic relationships… this book had all of it.
I remember thinking “wow” so many times during reading.
I will say it’s a darker story than I normally go for. The themes, being so *real* can hit pretty hard.
Overall - decent read for those that like character driven drama.
