• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

Heed the content warnings.  Nothing is overtly graphic or descriptive but it is very clear what is going on. 
It was an emotionally challenging book but the subject matter was handled with care and I feel Elizabeth Scott depicted the cycle of abuse, victims becoming abusers, and imperfect victims well.
