This was a dark read. I couldn't put it down. The depths it goes to is a lot. The emotions you go through reading it is raw and feels very real. I had to check it was actually fiction multiple times.
Relating to a lot of Vanessa's feelings and confusion was both comforting and disturbing at the same time.
I couldn't not rate this 5☆'s as I believe it was very well written and can really make you see how easy it is to be in the situation and be made to feel it's your fault.
Although it's only March I can tell this will be one of my very top books of the year and I'll be thinking about it for quite some time.
