dark emotional sad medium-paced

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes
how graphic the book was in describing trauma in its first few pages (which continued throughout the book) felt unnecessary and could be incredibly triggering for many readers. those who could otherwise identify with or even benefit the book might be put off by how graphic and violent the imagery is. however, edy’s descent as a result of her trauma was compelling and i could imagine it being even more so for teen readers.
