I really liked the structure but I can see why it might not be for everyone. My favourite part was part IV.

As a victim of domestic abuse, this was a hard read, but I also had not felt so heard.
“My queen…your words are very pretty. And yet they cannot obscure the simple fact that I have seen your zoo.”
This line hit me hard especially because I was used to so many pretty wrapped up promises and declarations of love knowing deep down that his words are meaningless or there’s too much damage done to be able to fix what he had broken.
Highly recommend this book! Amazing, beautifully written, and also devastatingly sad.

I want to read this again when I’m 25. Got so much from it but I know it has so much more to give. Intellectual but not inauthentic. I liked how it was nonlinear, felt like I was following the author alongside their healing journey.
