challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

genuinely can not believe this memoir hasn't won a Pulitzer. one of the best books i have ever read and that is saying a lot. the prose cuts through you and opens your mind. the emotions springora went through i felt through her writing. truly no other better description than this book is a "Molotov cocktail thrown at the face of the French establishment". breathtaking and heartwrenching.

I enjoyed this book because I like to see how others express how I feel. Some quotes from the book made me stop and reflect for a long time.

It is a heart wrenching read whether or not you can relate to the story.
