emotional sad tense medium-paced

• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

For my father, who tried his very best not to be his worst. 

And for my mother, who made sure we never saw him at his worst.

sunnysa's review against another edition

0/10 I spoke with a friend who told me she also hated this series because there was no redemption. I agree. 

I stopped the book as soon as the abuse started. As someone who lived through an abusive experience, it was very triggering.
