However, this was a book that I kind of stepped out of my usual comfort zone to read, I don't usually partake in sci-fi/speculative fiction/dystopian fiction books and I could definitely see someone who is a huge fan of these genres enjoying this book more than I did.
In conclusion, it's good, but it just didn't hit the way I was hoping it would for me.

Graphic: Animal death, Confinement, Cursing, Death, Miscarriage, Panic attacks/disorders, Self harm, Suicidal thoughts, Violence, Blood, and Grief
Moderate: Sexual assault
Minor: Cancer
The sexual assault tag is for an attempted sexual assault, and there is some victim blaming by other characters towards the protagonist. In addition to the Suicidal Thoughts tag there is an attempted suicide which is described in some detail. The cancer mention is VERY brief, a side character explains why she shaved her hair, to fundraise for a cancer charity.
