2.5

Spoiler this book is full of problematic elements. I raced through it and really enjoyed it but, thinking back there were so many relationships that were dodgy and not really frowned upon. One of the only ‘nice characters has sex with someone he thinks is his niece and a teacher who has sex with a student is invited to a funeral and no one cares what he did (student is at funeral. Father has issue with lesbian daughter but is ok with this other stuff!
