literary_princess's review
2.0
I was disappointed in this after how much I liked Looking for Mary. I was expecting to feel inspired, but instead I just felt discombobulated. Donofrio jumped all over the place and never seemed to settle anywhere (both physically and emotionally/spiritually)throughout this time. And her writing about it lacked flow, and there were these random quotes plopped in amidst the rest of the text completely sporadically. I don't know; I guess I was expecting her to find some sort of peace and connection somewhere, somehow, while working through the aftermath of being raped, but she really never did. I suppose that's probably realistic, but it doesn't make for a great book.
