If you’re considering reading this, just go read it.
If you’ve never heard of this, consider the content warnings, and then go read it.
I’ve never underlined a fictional book so much as I have with this.
I will never forget nor recover from this book.
I’m surprised I haven’t heard more about this book but if everyone who has read this feels the same way as I do, I understand. You have no clue what to say after a book such as this. Or you hated it. If that’s the case, please don’t tell me.
Be fair warned, it’s written differently than you’d expect. But it has the potential to be so good you are put in a book slump. Prevail!
Also, to say anything more would be spoilers. And I’m not exaggerating.
