    A disturbing yet compelling read. The mother-daughter dynamic is raw and unsettling. Not an easy read, but a thought-provoking one. Some part was difficult to digest.

    Doshi’s writing is sharp, but I struggled to connect with the characters. The story felt a bit too bleak and I wanted more resolution.

    A powerful exploration of memory and trauma. Some passages are beautifully written, while others are difficult to read. It’s stuck with me.

    The writing style is unique, but I found the story a bit slow-paced. I appreciate the themes it explores, but it didn’t fully resonate with me.
