A rare reality in the face of abuse, the courts and recovery. This book is a great sequence to Silence and can be inspiring to others. Speak. Out.

It's been four years since Oakley fled to Australia with her family, she's now forced to come face to face with her past, once again. The trials of the people who ruined her childhood are about to begin. It's a good sequel to silence, and it still makes me cry so much. I really do love that Oakley has a great family around her that believe her and support her. I also like how the author doesn't forget small things, like Oakley doing gymnastics, and brings them back into the story. I give extreme trigger warnings, and they're shown in the content warnings category. The only thing I didn't like is that, again, it felt somewhat like a teenager wrote it, and some of the so called "english" things aren't actually english. I would recommend this to ages 16 and up so they can fully understand it.
