dark emotional hopeful inspiring sad slow-paced

5.0

This was an amazing book that gave a honest depiction of the trauma and emotions that can come with a trauma like this. It also made me really angry the way that the legal system treated him like the victim and that he was the real one that was hurt. But I think that this was important story for Chanel to tell so that we can hear about this from her perspective and the one that was harmed most even if people won’t say that way because he had so much “potential”.

I still don't read enough non-fiction to properly review it. All I can say is that this was an incredibly compelling read. I loved Chanel Miller's writing. I think she was really good at conveying her emotions and really pulling you in. If you can handle the subject matter I do truly think this is required reading.

I tabbed this book 107 times. 
As a rape victim I have never felt so understood, seen, and loved. 

"You are not a statistic or a stereotype, so when they minimize you, dehumanize you, objectify you, you must push back with your whole weight, with you lifetime of experiences. To the faceless, the ones who remain anonymous. We each have a name. You have taught me to be proud of mine."
