I want to know more about her current relationship with her mom and siblings and what happened to FP. Truly a devastating book to read and as a reader, I'm so grateful to the people who did help her. What a strong, wonderful woman who shouldn't have had to become so strong at such a young age.

Terrific memoir it really does read like a novel. It is dark,

you really have to admire Guinevere’s perseverance and writing ability, both as a young person and today. Unfortunately, the story doesn’t truly look up until the end. I can only hope Turner decides to write a sequel.

for fans of I’m glad my mom died.
