It didn't start that good. I couldn't remember all the character names and i constantly forgot who Emma had beef with undsoweiter. However it did change like 33% into the book. I loved how carefully Louise O'Neill have created the story and the characters. Everyone felt very real and the look inside of Emmas concious was so interesting. It really deepens the understanding of how rape victims are seen to be behave as well as how the society around them challenges what it means to be violated. 

However be aware; this book has almost every single content warning one can give (like except homo/transphobia)

it was really good. i didnt think i would like it but i ended up loving it. the ending was the only thing that really bugged me. it really showed the hardships of healing of something so traumatic, and anyone who wonder what that is like should read this book!!
