This is an important book. For those of us who have walked with the trauma of sexual violence, woven it into the rough leather of our lived experience, Chanel’s words are at once an acid bath and a balm.

this was absolutely devastating. i read this in a day and would not recommend doing that. i finished the book feeling so hollow and sad. Chanel Miller is an amazing author and i am so grateful to have been able to read her story.

This is not a book you can love. I hate this book. I hate that it has to exist, that these words are true and that they resonate so deeply with so many women. I hate that it has to exist, but I’m glad that it does. I have never in my life had to put down a book that I wanted to keep reading so many times - I lost count of the times I felt a tightness in my chest, tears welling in my eyes, an ache in my heart. I took my time moving through this, absorbing every word and feeling it in my soul. Evocative and deeply moving, 5 huge and unwavering stars. This should be required reading.
