I heard this described as “Educated” on crack. And that's kind of accurate. I wasn't as emotionally invested in what was happening to the author as I wanted to be. And because she wrote from her perspective as a child thinking everything was okay and nothing was weird, I started thinking that way too, and stuff that is normally very shocking became less impactful in the story...
It's definitely interesting, but I don't think the writing is amazing and therefore i just wasn't as drawn-in/invested or cared as much as I wanted to.
