This book was beautifully written and quite unique. If you are looking for a book to stretch your thinking, look no further. The second-person POV took some getting used to. At times, I found the storyline a little difficult to follow.
Graphic: Death, Violence, Vomit, and Murder
Moderate: Confinement, Homophobia, Racism, Grief, Colonisation, and Injury/Injury detail
