Listen I half feel like you all should ignore my review because this isn't the kind of book I usually read. It was a bit out of my comfort zone so even though it wrote about some important and disturbing topics in a beautiful writing style I feel that I couldn't appreciate it as much as other readers did. 

I think I was very much invested in the beginning and towards the end but the book became slightly boring for me in the middle. Again, I think that might just be me and lit fic books in general and not a comment on this book.

Overall this was quite dark, a bit graphic and depressing so do read the trigger warning before you go into it.
