4.0
the last chapter of this book (the conclusion) was one of the most horrifying stories i’ve ever heard in my life. there were many graphic stories in here that were shocking to hear, and lots of people (men) with despicable behavior, so when i reached the end assuming we were maybe on an upswing, i was not prepared for this grand finale of a story. wow.
i feel like i also learned a lot in terms of law and legislation when it comes to things like stalking, revenge p*rn, etc as she talked about various clients of hers throughout her career. at times the legal jargon went a bit over my head or i had to rewind but overall
it was digestible.
the author showed so much resilience and perseverance in situations i could not begin to imagine experiencing and surviving through. not only is she a survivor herself, but she fights for other survivors in her professor and it’s pretty amazing to see that she turned such terrifying experiences into the career she has. the authors note was very uplifting and hopeful without cheapening the message overall. very moving, very emotional, super graphic so please be warned!!!
