chovereads's review against another edition
the writing style and timeline was a bit confusing, I will say. sometimes it would jump around and I think it was intentional but I wasn’t sure at times where we were in the story. I loved the way she wrote from the POV of her child self — very matter of fact, telling us what she thought, what she was told, not interlacing her freed adult self into the writing.
