Recommended if you need a break from YA. This is not a story with a singular narrative arc, it doesn’t have action or romance & it isn’t a page turner. (So if you’re in a hurry you won’t like this).
Instead, this novel demands that you take your time to absorb the raw emotions of several different characters who’s lives are altered when tragedy strikes. It takes a daring & deep look into the minds of the perpetrators & the victims. It’s a brilliant, thought provoking & slow moving examination of how people can either devolve or evolve after devastation.
