A review by svtephreads
A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara

Did not finish book. Stopped at 9%.

I tried reading this three times and couldn’t get through it. It’s so graphic and unnecessarily cruel to read. I don’t recommend it to anyone. It has every content warning you can think of. The sparknotes summary was already too graphic for me.
