I’m finding this book very well written but equally uncomfortable/unpleasant. I’m not a fan of the current boomlet of books about very young women who make terrible choices, especially when it comes to sex, and seem to labor at their own degradation. A heroine needs agency (and not just for self-harm) to hold my interest. Will persevere for now.

Exactly, Elaine. I stopped reading this book for the very reasons you mention, probably right around 20%.

I think I'll remove this from my tbr. I was uncertain about it originally.
I finished reading this book a few days ago and although it was very well-written, I really didn't like it... you said it very well above why exactly.
