This book is written beautifully! The subject matter on the other hand touches on some incredibly different personal problems. Ms. Harris gives a warning as many of the topics can be triggering for some, however these difficult issues all dealt with in one book is really a masterpiece. Well worth the read, especially when dealt with so sensitively.

This book was great in theory but I had a hard time keeping interest, especially towards the end. Throughout the book it just felt like it was dragging. I was honestly just waiting for it to end. I feel like the focus of the book was more on each of the individuals drama instead of the main focal point of the story. The ending felt rushed to wrap everything up & honestly a little sloppy. I was a little disappointed because I heard such good things about her writing style but it was honestly just a miss for me. But I do feel like I will give this author another chance later on.
