This book is so beautifully written, even when it touches sensitive and heavy subjects. It made me feel more secure in my womanhood, but also made me question how I see myself and women in the world. It challenges cultural perceptions and self-image in an emotional and profound way.

Very thought provoking look at what it means to exist in a larger body and what it means to be a victim of sexual trauma with no treatment.

I could hardly put it down, I was riveted. Parts of it seemed a little disjointed but it came together towards the end.
