Average rating3.4
Well-written toxic family drama featuring cannibalism! Maybe a touch longer than it needed to me but it kept me interested and gave me sympathy for the main character.
I’ll be checking out other books from Lucy Rose.

This odd little book has been a real source of discussion lately, and after reading it, I can see why. Told through the perspective of a child, there's a devastating sadness and unsettling nature to her upbringing that claws its way under your skin and remains there. I wanted to take Margot right out of these twisted pages and hold her, but she's far from an innocent little girl - and, somehow, her own terrible behaviors and thoughts about the world made me love her that much more. The ending of this book is going to stay with me for a long time to come, and despite how much heartache the entire story brought me, I'm already itching to read it once more.
