If i had to describe this book in words i’d call it, “A walking psa for domestic abuse written on plain white bread”.
Reading the authors note, i understand the premise behind this book came from a very personal story, and i admire the courage it took to take that expierience and turn it into a novel.
My main issue, is the delivery and execution in this book is so mind numbingly simple and every idea being explained EXACTLY to the reader that it makes the second half of the book drag to no end. Definitely not for everyone, but can see why others might find it appealing.
