Heartbreaking read offering controversial takes on SA. I agree with other reviews that likens this story as being told from Lolita's perspective. Definitely heed content warnings because this book jumps into tense topics from the start.

Absolutely gut-wrenching. Very necessary commentary, accompanied by beautiful prose. The story is written from Vanessa’s perspective, which makes the abuse she endured all the more raw. I can’t say that I’d recommend this book to anyone else, for the sheer fact that it takes a lead stomach to read it, but I do not regret finishing it. Check trigger warnings as there are many.

challenging dark emotional reflective sad tense slow-paced
Read it with a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes, screaming at the book "this is not okay! stop!" No other book ever affected me like this... Approach witch caution but if you feel you are ready - it is a very, very important read
Can't rate it though 
but I don't think I'll ever be the same
