Pain. Pain. Pain. Pain.

I’m just in pain. This book will leave you in pure agonizing pain, but it’s so worth it.

I was completely caught by this book. Kathleen Glasgow never fails to amaze me with her writing. I’ve been putting the book off for a very long time, since it’s a rough topic, and oh my was it a roller coaster of emotions!

I had to put down the book several times and just cry it out before I could pick up the book again and continue reading. It’s so heartbreaking and so real. 

Once I was done I just lied there for a good ten minutes, feeling almost empty. Oh how this book brought out my feelings in a way no book ever has. 

It’s such a real topic and a very real book that will make you cry, gasp and hope, honestly there might be some screaming of frustration too. But that’s how a book is supposed to be! 

Such an amazing book and story.
