Extremely humane book, talking about how parents can be gods to us, and how falling from that godhood might look like.

Definitely be prepared for it to be triggering. It's a story of real abuse. But it's amazingly written. Every detail included and excluded is great. She knows just how much info to give that's relevant and moves the story forward even when writing about real events.

As someone who lost their abusive father to cancer it is also fairly relatable and helps me feel better about the complicated feelings I also had surrounding his death.
