I’m only giving it 3 stars bc the writing is just good and the magical realism is very magically realistic!! but dear lord this was SUCH a PAINFUL read , i could not in good conscience recommend this book to anyone. Made me cry in public, almost vomit a couple times, simply awful reading experience.
If anyone recommends this book to u, they ur opp‼️‼️‼️
