A rather quick read, that I enjoyed maybe more because of the theme than the writing itself. It was easy to get through reading-wise, even though some of the themes are more gruesome. I do think that the writer has a great way of portraying harshness through their writing, and even where I felt that the Swedish translation was lacking a bit I could see that it would be more impactful in English.
Graphic: Sexism, Transphobia, and Violence
Moderate: Racism, Sexual content, Sexual violence, and Stalking
