this book was WEIRD. just downright strange and disturbing. the prose was sharp and wonderful, the characters (particularly Abby) were incredibly complex, and it was well written. some of the plot felt a little loose, or like it came out of left field, but aside from that it was a whip smart read. you’re gonna need a strong stomach, though!!
Graphic: Suicide, Cannibalism, and Pregnancy
Moderate: Vomit and Suicide attempt
