It’s better to be swallowed whole than in pieces. Only then can you win. No elephant can be too big. Only then no elephant can do you harm.
After owning this book for three years and it being unread all of that time, it is such a good feeling to finally read it even though it isn't the easiest read to consume. It's so beautifully written and painful and also so hopeful even when these two girls/women are in such hopeless situations.
If you're planning on reading this book, please know that there's a lot of violence, both physically and verbally, acted upon girls and women from beginning to end.
