emotional
sad
I don't feel right rating this, so I won't m, but I did really like this book. So many of the testimonies included hit deep, with really profound things to say coming from the older women in particular.
The construction of the book itself was very deliberate, with stories from the young teens being juxtaposed against the lives of the much much older women, at times old enough to be their grandmothers.
The way this book ended for me also hit very deep. It felt incredibly realistic to the nature of this disorder and how complicated it truly is.
