Spoiler ahead: book was ok but it’s full of emotional abuse and pushes the idea of family privacy to the point it makes you hate most of the characters and their unwillingness to speak up for what is right. Then to top it off SPOILER: the main character is killed off. Yep it’s like the author decided they no longer like this person who was becoming independent and questioning the world. Instead they make the side character (his mother) the main character moving forward. The Mothers backstory was a little interesting but not enough that it made the story interesting enough to carry the book on her own.
