This was a book club pick on Twitch hosted by CapnTrippz. Really enjoyed this book including the discussions we had in chat. I feel it speaks to the moment we’re in right now and is an important read for everyone to get through at least once.

I was super into this up until the end. I just feel like the twist was just too twisty for the sake of twists and almost unbelievable. I did enjoy everything else. Definitely triggering so be warned.
