This was a compelling read, but it ended very abruptly, and it wasn't a satisfying ending in my opinion.

I didn't enjoy this book. The pacing was odd and there was a lot of flashbacks to the main character's trauma surrounding fatphobia and ED. I felt that the relationships were rushed as well, the main character immediately trusted the romantic interest despite having very little reason to do so.

Very similar to "It's A Wonderful Life." Regrets were a major focus of the story and I can't say that resonated with me much, but it was a well written book.

Really quality, dark war sci fi. Reminiscent of books about Vietnam.
