The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma by Bessel van der Kolk

Did not finish book. Stopped at 80%.
It's a very interesting book, but the great level of detail made it a chore to go through at times. I wish I skipped through some of the first chapters to read the later ones on treatments. I'm no stranger to non-fiction tomes, but this one started feeling tedious so I couldn't finish it. Maybe one day I'll pick it back up. 

It's also very graphic at times, so it may get triggering for those with experiences of abuse.
