The People We Keep by Allison Larkin

2.5

Dear The People We Keep,

I feel like I’ve read this before? 
Predatory men
Abusive parents
Trauma response
Young girl struggling

This isn’t a bad story. I just could not feel April’s growth or change. She just was. And the men, ugh. She went from one predatory and awful guy to the next. 
I was not amused.

And the ending, motherhood and giving birth is what fixes her and all the trauma………. 😑🙄
