I have seen people all over TikTok crying about the end of this book. Any sadness I felt was turned into rage with the last chapter. As a mom and victim, I felt so torn with this story. I wanted to hate Noah but as a mom it was tough. I think the way the author handled the subject matter did a good job showing all sides and how everyone can be affected by this. I would recommend but def check trigger warnings.

I was very impressed by this author's knowledge on

sex offender treatment

. I used to work with that population and she did a pretty good job! The end had a twist I didn't see coming.
