adventurous challenging emotional hopeful inspiring sad tense medium-paced

5.0

Wow pretty much covers how I felt reading this entire book. Silvia is such an inspiration, and I adore her growth and ability to develop honesty with herself through the challenges she engaged in. I’ve been hit by her experiences and hope that she continues to find healing and love for her young self, as well as the person she is now.

There are probably more content warnings, but basically it is tough stuff! That being said, I am changed from reading this and so glad I pushed through, it is so incredibly powerful.
