2.0
This book merits a LOT of content warnings and it's not clear why. Taking a light and apparently thoughtless touch to topics like intimate partner abuse, child abuse, and socioeconomic disparities... I just wish there had been a more skillful way of creating historical narratives for these characters.
Graphic: Ableism, Addiction, Alcoholism, Child abuse, Fatphobia, and Abandonment
Moderate: Body shaming
Minor: Animal cruelty
