cmcahill's review against another edition

I started watching the television show and thought I would check out the book. The TV show is sometimes hard to watch, but reading about the losses some women face, is much more powerful and upsetting. For this reason, I abandoned the book.

challenging dark emotional informative inspiring sad medium-paced

3.5

I wouldn’t have liked this book had I not seen the show. The writing style wasn’t for me, and I didn’t love the pacing of the story. The book kept me interesting though and I did really enjoy reading about the characters and stories from the show, so I will probably read the rest of the series
