Amazing memories. It was written so well and paired with beautiful images. It spoke to what its like growing up as a woman in this present time - being viewed as a sexual object and sadly being abused. She wrote her story well without it being too graphic. I really enjoyed this.

It's hard to put into words how I felt reading this book. To be fair I've been reading a lot of books I randomly pick from Libby based on title + cover. The author does a great job at being honest through her writing and illustrations. I especially like the use of empty space and how it felt way more reflective than particularly art focused if that makes sense? Just getting feelings out and processing trauma. It's a lot and I do have some issues with it but at the same time this is a book of healing for the author and I can only hope things get better for her.
