4.25✨ this book hooked me from the start. I would be very interested to see how she reflects on these life events now after a few years of this book coming out.

Really liked this book. Most of the time I was slack jawed reading this, disbelieving that this could be happening in modern times. It's slightly reminiscent of The Great Alone, but is real life, rather than fiction. Amazing what she accomplished given her history.

I appreciate how well she described the mindset of a person trapped in an abusive family.
