**I received this book as an ARC and am reviewing prior to publishing date**
Real. Raw. Challenging. Three words that I would use to describe this book. She addresses mental health and trauma without stigmatizing or backing away from the uncomfortable.
I laughed, I cried, I rooted for the kids as they started processing and healing. This book is intense. But oh so worth it. It helps serve as a reminder that healing IS possible even when all seems lost.
