The first wasn't a huge deal, but kind of irritated me throughout the novel. It's not really a spoiler to the story because it is mentioned a single time and never mentioned or addressed again, and it has little to do with the plot of the novel. The protagonist recalls the fact that she was gang raped by 5 older children when she was 8 years old. That's a rather huge bomb to drop and then do absolutely nothing with. I get that the author used it as a device to explain why she was scared of linking with the aliens or whatever, but it just felt wholly unnecessary and out of place in the story.
The second point, the thing that kind of ruined the whole book for me happens near the very end of the novel, and is a spoiler to how things turn out:
