A review by alstrath
All of Us by A. F. Carter
4.0
Carolyn Grand suffered extreme abuse as a young child at the hands of her father and not much improved for her in foster care. In order to survive her horrific circumstances, various personalities were birthed to control each aspect of her life until she, Carolyn, didn't have to surface and function anymore.
I found this book beautifully written, so respectful of the struggles of multi-personalities. The author got the reader inside the head of each multi and you started understanding why each one was birthed and the role of each one in their life.
How each multi deals with the therapist; the police and other figures and even each other, is very clever and insightful.
The ending caught me totally by surprise and in retrospect was actually very clever. The policeman was a clever addition to the whole setup.
A book well worth reading.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for allowing me the chance to read this book.
