Extremely interesting, haunting, fascinating and gripping. Reminiscent of A Cage of Butterflies, before ACoB. We all yearn to find meaning and connection, and understand.
Content Warnings
Moderate: Child abuse and Racial slurs
Content warnings added for awareness, keeping in mind the book was both written at an earlier period and portraying unlikeable characters with the attitudes of the time. (The kinds of people the protagonists want to get away from.)
