4.75

the way that lily acts towards ryle when he claims he would change made me extremely mad, like leave him permanently!! but overall it was a rollercoaster of emotions and made me EXTREMELY tense during some parts and those are the kind of books that i LOVE. it displays acts of physical abuse from spouses/partners and also tells you options on what to do. i love how this book displays what some women/men have to go through. according to me overall, i give this book a perfect 5 according to the storyline and pace! (took me 3 nights to read it whole because of how the book had me CLINGING) but according to my emotions, a 4.75 because of how often i cried (not joking.)

Moderate: Emotional abuse and Abandonment

Minor: Mental illness and Adult/minor relationship

I put the adult/minor relationship tag because technically speaking there is a relationship between an 18 year old and a 15 year old. That said, the age gap is 2 and a half years and isn't too much cause for concern in my opinion.

I really enjoyed this book. As much as the reality of Lily’s situation hurt, I found the emotions she went through extremely moving.

Her story is one that I Ioved reading and understanding and the way it was written ensured I was always intrigued and wanting to read more.

I enjoyed learning about the past of the main character and how this has impacted her life today. The book still ended on an uplifting note despite the waves of struggle Lily went through, this was a nice touch.

I think the book is educational and important in order to share situations of domestic abuse, it definitely opened up my eyes to how confusing these situations can be.
