I BEG YOU, PLEASE CHECK THE TRIGGER WARNINGS BEFORE PICKING THIS UP.
Charlie is such a lovely girl who's had such a shitty life, who ends up making the wrong choices all over again, not so much because she consciously CHOOSES to, but because shit just keeps finding its way to her. There's so much depth to her, she tries so hard to be better, and it's so so so difficult. I don't know how Kathleen got these words onto the pages, how they didn't tear her apart completely, because they sure as hell tore me apart.
