I'm 8th grade it seamed a bit of a love story. This time is was a tale of horrible abuse and imprisonment.
This book takes on shocking turns. It's a good read, but it's horrifying at times.Â

There’s a sense of complete bleakness here, no escape just a constant headfirst plunge into the depravity and darkness of the world. Even the lightheaded scenes are tainted with this horrible oppressive feeling, and Chris and Cathy’s ‘relationship’ only makes things worse. I am also not a fan of how Andrews chose to portray any of the relationships in this book beyond the bond the siblings share as siblings. Their family bond was precious to see and kept me going through the slog of selfish decision after selfish decision that the adults around them kept making.Â
All in all wasn’t an fan and don’t recommend this to people unless they know what they’re getting into.Â
