5.0

I swear it feels like parts of this book were just an interpolation of my life. It hurt and comforted me so much and for any white bi women who discovered themselves in college and felt like an impostor and was SAed it will hurt so much and just hug you at the same time. I’m older now and know myself better but god I wish I could have given this book to 20 year old me, they really could have used it <3

Writing this review many months later, but this book is such a gift to survivors and adds to the current body of work about sexual assault/rape in a refreshing way. I still think about it.

This was well written and the story was super compelling. I think it would have resonated more with me if I were in college or high school - definitely should be read by all young adults out there. The trigger warnings are intense so please take caution before proceeding.
