A challenging to read book based on real events. Celeste is such a foul character. I feel a lot of sympathy towards the boys, particularly Jack who was a sweet character. Fantastic writing but it does contain graphic adult/minor sex scenes that are a challenge to read without feeling nauseous.
Graphic: Adult/minor relationship, Infidelity, Pedophilia, Sexual content, Death of parent, and Gaslighting
Moderate: Alcoholism, Cursing, Drug abuse, Drug use, Blood, Abortion, Alcohol, and Injury/Injury detail
