This book is about the effects grooming has on the mc, projecting onto other victims, and insisting that she, herself, hasn't been a long term victim.
It delves into the grooming of a 15 year old up to her current years as 32. It delves into the horror of how an adult and a teacher at that can take advantage of someone so young. It was uncomfortable and downright tragic knowing the things he was doing was so self centered and manipulative it impacts Vanessa in so many ways...

I think my only critique was that I wanted more at the end! I think that the way it ended felt intentional and provided closure, but I did find myself wanting something more! Partly because I loved reading Vanessa's character and partly because I wanted to see her experience some of the emotional freedom she so deserved, maybe reclaim writing for herself. I think this would've taken another book or at least a time jump to do and I know trauma is not so cut and dry, so I can't even call my critique a critique haha. Just a want for more of this lovely story and complex character.
