dark emotional sad tense fast-paced

4.0

It’s hard to give this book such a high rating for the difficult content it contained. But the retelling of this story and how it brought to light stories of abuse was very well written. Sending so much positive energy and peace to the girls.

this book talks about abuse is so many forms. Very disturbing and should have trigger warnings on the cover.
