Potential for something great

Honestly it feels incredibly hard to rate this book. At parts it was magnificent, the writing was prolific and the words were carrying deeper meaning and grave understanding of the sheer horrible reality of consent abuse and sexual assault. At other parts the book felt unintentionally on the nose, rushed and just soulless. It’s sad because the premise was also so intriguing and the main character was a joy to explore and suffer with, it all felt so .. humane. And yet, I can’t help but feel let down. The rushed ending especially does not help this book. This was at parts truly painful to read simply because it was too true, so definitely proceed with caution
