I didn't finish it, it was too bad, and not only because they are literal siblings but is just so poorly written

Despite the page count, this was an incredibly quick read. A tragic, heart wrenching portrayal of traumatized teens searching for love and comfort amongst much more than they should be having to endure with their siblings. The author was able to write about a potentially disturbing subject matter in such a beautiful, empathetic way. I couldn't put this one down and my heart hurt for these two young people. Very well done.

This book is the reason I don't go blind into books anymore. 

This was being recommended to me on Tiktok. TIKTOK. I don't know what the hell that says about my fyp but I bought into it. All I knew was that it was supposed to be sad. 

Listen - this kind of story would be understandable if it was a biography. A grim story of someone's actual life, as I'm sure this has and does happen to people, but I'm not too sure what the author hoped to achieve with this. I didn't feel for the characters. I didn't connect with them. Didn't understand where they were coming from or sympathize with what they were going through. Maybe if the writing had been better, that might have been a different story. 

But alas, the writing was poor, the characters were unrealistic and the dialogue, for the most part, was utter torture. 

Check the trigger warnings before reading this one.
