The acts of rape/sexual assault to a child sibling were described, but not in too much detail, and in only a couple chapters. Everything is in 3rd person. The death of parent is described and talked about (like going to the funeral), but the death itself wasn’t described very in-detail and it was a natural death. There was also religious delusions (believing self to be God, and believing God was sending them a message). The school shootings was mentioned once, and a specific event wasn’t discussed.aliteracja's review

As someone who is just getting into non-fiction, it’s a little difficult for me to be overly critical as I am just learning what I’m looking for and what I want from the genre. That being said, I don't have a lot of criticism for this book. I enjoyed it. I thought the writing style was pretty good in how it read like non-fiction and I liked that a lot of effort was put into crafting a cohesive story from such a painful experience.
