I loved this book despite the many trigger warnings it comes with. She has such a way with words that has you feeling like you're right there. You picture the scenes and even the smells. Quite a few you wish you didn't picture because of how disturbing they are. Sam, Charlie, Rusty, and Gamma will live rent free in my mind. I went through so many emotions during this book and cried a few times. This is definitely a rollercoaster with twists and turns I didn't see coming.
