this book was not too bad, but the main character is kind of not likable until the end. there are no warnings for the r*pe that is depicted which is kind of disheartening. the stepfather character is also awful and yet the therapist character wants our main character to forgive him and become buddy buddy; which i find awful. some of the characters i did like, and it was definitely an interesting read

So I didn’t realize this was the abridged version of this book but the. Again I don’t think I would have gotten through the unabridged. I ended up like I g this book and thought it had a nice ending to it. It’s really more character driven so there’s not a big plot to follow, although there is a plot, so it’s slow and it took me a while to actually get invested. Overall I don’t know if it will be memorable but I enjoyed it.
