*4.5 stars

this is my first reread since like my grade 10 year, but i read this about 4 or 5 times in the span of that year lol. i'm still in shambles

well alright i'll never be okay again

well that was the angry, not-at-all apologetic book i didn't think i needed until i had it.

idk i really loved this and there's no way in hell for me to look at this book objectively. yeah, the ending kinda stick well for me but i totally understand it. whimsical, hard to read, a hint of fantasy, a wonderful mix.

content warnings/TW: sexual assault, semi-graphic rape, alcoholism, talk of suicide, slut-shaming

*4.5 stars

literally one of the best contemporaries i've read this year. 😔💛
