This had some dark stuff in it, so definitely check the trigger warnings. It was so interesting though! Both the timeline of the current situation and the trickle history of how the MC got to that point. 

I hated the mother and wanted to bitch slap the friends for their response to some things that were beyond Nora's control (of course she would keep stuff like this from you, you have no right to be butt hurt when people with unpleasant pasts don't share). But the reactions were realistic, loathe as I am to admit it.

Actually, it was rather impressive writing that made me so angry over things not real people did to other not real people, when I think about it. Definitely going to check out others books by this author.

Would not recommend for under 16s. That is my only flaw (stated as suitable for 12-18 on Amazon).

 I can’t wait to make this book my personality for the next three weeks lmao.

Absolutely amazing, really well written in every aspect and an incredible portrayal of what abuse can do to people and how it can come in many different forms.

An incredibly dark story about abuse but honestly, an incredibly fun read. The subject matter itself is dark but the book is a thrill ride from start to finish.
