These essays are haunting and they wrecked me. Cotton’s way of thinking is accurate and painful. Her writing will stay with me for a long time.

I had absolutely no expectations for this book going in, other than it was a collection of essays. They were all so extremely good, and I would recommend this book to anyone.
