Lucky: A Memoir by Alice Sebold

3.0

This book is very raw. Be wary of it if you are likely to be triggered by stories of rape and sexual trauma. I was never raped but experienced a lot of emotional abuse and sexual trauma in a relationship and had to frequently take breaks reading this book. Unfortunately I had no choice on reading it as it was for a class on gender and crime. I feel like the author still has a lot of pent up issues and quite honestly while reading it, although she would appeal to the contrary, I constantly felt like she had not dealt with them at all aside from publishing her story in a very dark memoir.
