challenging dark emotional informative reflective tense medium-paced

4.0

This is such a hard book to review. It’s very graphic so be warned. It goes into so much detail and it’s so disturbing to read. I would recommend this book if you want to learn more about it and the misconceptions about this and all the coverups and things of that nature that happened during this time. I did appreciate learning about the victims and their lives before and after. I do have to say when reading this how I was thinking that nothing really has changed to make these less common, which is just so awful. I did read this when I was in middle school( the author spoke at my school), it was good to read this with an adult brain.
