The author handles this content sensitively, and pretty much none of the content warnings listed above happen in real time. Nearly all of them are flashbacks. The content warning is serious only because of the reflective nature of the book; the events will make you reflect on them and that could prove harmful for some folks.ekopaskie's review against another edition

Although a heavy read, I really enjoyed how therapeutic (pun intended) the book was. The human condition is always interesting and discovering what we need to survive. My only wish was that we got more insight into the end. I needed a few extra pages to go into detail and see the final interaction. But in the end, there's always hope.

I also couldn’t get past the fact that Tallie’s character just felt so cheesy and unrealistic. She’s described as an “empath” and just overly trusting because she can read people’s energy??
My expectations for this book were low to begin with just going off the cover but I was hoping for something fun and easy to read. This story just felt very bizarre and had characters that didn’t feel real to me at all.
