This was good. It was predictable but also has many surprising moments. There was enough to keep me wanting to read more.
This book is very emotional when it warns you with a trigger, it’s not something to take lightly.

The author is cavalier in her handling of traumatic topics. She lacks depth and maturity to broach these subjects.
