5.0

What an absolutely devastating but truly important book. There is something about how Bri Lee writes that is like reading a letter from a friend. She is so open and honest about things that most people would bottle up inside in the fear that they may be judged but the importance of speaking about and reading these emotions is monumentuous.
This will be one of those books that I think back on in years to come.

iesharuby's review against another edition

challenging dark emotional informative inspiring sad tense slow-paced

3.5

the courage of bri lee to make the choices she did consistently for personal and community justice no matter how difficult is something i do not want to diminish in the slightest. i stand with her as an abuse survivor and thank her for her candour. however, the lack of acknowledgement for her privilege and at times true judgement of those in both country australia and Aboriginal communities was quite upsetting. her inexperience with intersectionality unfortunately drew me away from the book in many aspects, but i am glad i read it nonetheless.
