What readers are saying about this book
Summarized by Pango AI
PangoBooks readers have mixed yet potent reactions to this book. Many find it to be an emotionally overwhelming and beautifully written story, though its extensive length and graphic depictions of trauma make it a challenging read. Some appreciate the deep character development and changing perspectives, especially around Jude's harrowing life journey, but others feel the vivid descriptions of suffering are excessive or sensationalized. While it’s praised for its emotional impact and engaging narrative, several readers caution about the heavy trigger warnings and the need for a strong mental state to endure it. A few readers found the book to be boring or overly drawn out, struggling to connect with the characters or the prolonged internal monologues.
