The main character of this book has OCD. Many of her compulsions are described in detail, in a way that could be upsetting for someone with this disorder or a similar one. There are also graphic scenes of physical abuse and sexual assault. Not excessively long or detailed. There are only a few brief scenes of violence, but they can be fairly graphic at times.jessicafacchinigould's review against another edition

The story depicts an abusive relationship without shying away from detailing scenes of abuse and violence explicitly. Also, the emotions and thoughts in the victim's mind are the main focus, so they can be raw and brutal.wittyintrovert's review against another edition

I picked it up as a challenge to myself to read more of the books I physically own, and I can say that I’m glad I did
The subject matter really forced me to reflect on my own opinions and biases and left me feeling like I’ve bettered myself.
It’s a tough subject matter, not for everyone but I would definitely recommend it.
