Léigheas an ceann so réasúnta tapaidh, bhí na caibidlí cuíosach gearr agus bhí sé frist cúpla ceann a léamh agus sos a thógaint.
Chuir sé ag cuimhneamh mé ar na slite go mbímíd ag déanamh cloí le scéalta i gcónaí, tar éis eachtra tragóideach is maith linn scéal néata bheith ann, bíonn sé níos fusa dhúinn ná an fhírinne. Ní maith linn an doiléire agus an éiginnteacht.
Mar gheall ar dheireadh an scéil:

I loved going back and forth in time from boarding school in the 90s to present day. I appreciated the author keeping the story planted in the 'real world' and it read at times like true crime while also being explicitly (and cheekily) critical of the genre. However, true to life is what ended up being the biggest drawback for me because often it felt like real life bureaucracy got in the way of telling a compelling and satisfying story.

Moderate: Violence and Sexual violence
