I liked the chapters of the side characters more than Cleo's and Frank's. They just seemed so dysfunctional from the get go that I couldn't really invest myself in their relationship at all. It's beautifully written and an emotional experience, but I don't think it's for me.
Graphic: Suicide attempt
Moderate: Animal death and Death of parent
