Oh wow. This was a powerful read for such a short book! It felt authentic in the way it was written. It’s written from the POV of a young child, and I kept getting flashes of my daughter when she was younger. Amazing book.

Oh wow this book was really good! I read it in one sitting. I just couldn’t put it down. It’s told in the pov of a little girl. This book was very dark. Her daddy hurts her mom and she sees this and calls it the “bad man” that takes over her daddy. This story had my heart racing, I was tense and I bawled. The author did an incredible job and I felt like I was there. I was so immersed in the story. It’s an incredible story of survival told through the eyes of a little girl. Incredible. Please give it a read.
