This book is a harrowing read with a lot of disturbing topics and situations. The main character is definitely a lot to handle. I really went back and forth on how I felt about her and the book as a whole almost the entire time that I was reading it. Ultimately, I quite liked it. It's not an easy read, but within the world that it creates it is satisfying. I would strongly recommend checking out the list of content items before reading. I was not entirely ready for a few of the things I encountered.
