A love triangle strewn across past and present of our main character. A richly detailed sorry of lives and how they were shaped but brutally sad and often time difficult to read about the abuse.

forloveandmusic's review against another edition

Nothing good happens. This is like reading a teenagers diary where she only writes everything that goes wrong. Any of the exciting parts are skipped over so fast and so out of order you can’t actually follow them.
