- Flaws of characters a main focus? No
Some parts read like spoken word poetry. Some are simply fiction. Almost all of it is horror, though I imagine it's well-researched and true horror. The sexual assaults are described with simultaneously less and more detail than needed to get their point across. The way people respond to the victims is horrifying. The way we alienate and vilify victims and survivors of sexual assault is horrifying.
I'm not quite sure how to rate this book, so I won't.
Graphic: Sexual assault, Sexual violence, Rape, and Emotional abuse
Moderate: Self harm, Pedophilia, Injury/Injury detail, Grief, Child abuse, Body horror, Torture, and Transphobia
Minor: Drug abuse, Alcoholism, Addiction, Suicide, Eating disorder, and Blood
Giant, massive trigger warning for survivors of sexual abuse: maybe don't read this book.jnevvvv's review against another edition
