dark tense medium-paced

disgusting and disturbing and violent and engaging AND TRUE. the way that this book is written sucked me in so deep. the ending moved a little quick for how long I felt invested, but maybe that’s just how true crime is?

This book is a true story but it is unbelievable. It is graphic, sad and frustrating.

dark emotional sad tense fast-paced

It’s hard to give this book such a high rating for the difficult content it contained. But the retelling of this story and how it brought to light stories of abuse was very well written. Sending so much positive energy and peace to the girls.
