i agree!! they don’t use rape or abuse as some thrown in plot point for the sake of being dark. for how depressing it is, it feels like a natural progression. just a bunch of bad shit that could’ve happened, happened. even tho it’s so depressing and we r literally witnessing a downward spiral of despair without much hope in sight for FL, it’s pretty well written and the personality change in FL feels natural too bc i would be numb and dissociating at that point too

never read a dark romance as dark romance as this dark romance
