I have not physically recoiled because of a book since reading Midnight in Chernobyl, and I kind of wish I could erase some of the described suffering of these girls from memory...

Oh no you're in for another wild ride, for sure. It can be really hard to get through this one, but it's very interesting (interestingly frustrating), and pays off to see these girls fight for themselves and one another.

I had to take a bit of a break from it! The very first death described was so brutal, I kept hoping that it was ending soon for her, but her sickness just kept going :(
