How much can I witness one character be dragged through before I can no longer suspend disbelief?
Seems like she just enjoys torturing her characters.
The amount of colorism, racism, fat shaming, ableism, false 'mental health' representation, abuse, mentions of rape and molestation, inappropriate sexual relationships, stereotypes, and just downright torture for shock value that took place in this book - disgusting.

3.0
Buiten dat om vond ik het wel een heel interessant boek om te lezen. Er wordt goed weergegeven hoe de opvoeding en het gedrag van ouders kan zorgen dat een kind dingen doet die niet horen. Het legal system in Amerika wordt ook goed weergegeven en het is absurd dat een kind zo gemakkelijk terecht kan staan voor iets waar ze niet genoeg onderzoek voor gedaan hebben. Helaas gebeurd dit in het echte leven ook.
Ben het gewoon alleen niet helemaal eens over het verloop van het verhaal want ik jammer vind.
