its hard to review a memoir bc its not just a made up story but smn that actually happened and i dont want to discount her experience but i will say i liked her writing and how she goes through everything that happened to her and the effects of it

i did leave a lot of rants in a buddy read and i did end up googling the case and reading the entire wiki page jdsjxndnxn

Chanel Miller is such a great storyteller. I remember when this case broke in the news. I did not realize the incident happened just months before I myself attended college! Hearing Miller tell us her story, displaying her anger, frustration, sadness, numbness, loneliness, hopelessness really brought power to her story, especially in Emily Doe's Victim Impact Statement at the end of the book.

Masterpiece. Instant classic. Gut punch. What to say about this incredible book? Miller doesn't just draw back the curtain on women's need for constant vigilance and gender violence, she burns it. Her story, searing, honest, and fierce, blazes with pain, light, healing, and tenacity. I have never been spoken to so clearly, touched so deeply, and I've certainly never sobbed so hard with grief. This is a lament and a rocky path out of darkness. Miller's writing is clear, gorgeous, expressive, and incredibly well-crafted. Really a life-changing book.

This was such a powerful, revolutionary memoir, and listening to it read by Chanel was so moving. I am hopeful that society is moving in a direction where victims do not have to go nearly as far as Chanel did to receive appropriate justice. I am also hopeful that these acts of violence can continue to be intercepted by community and looking out for each other. Believe victims, and believe women.
