This was not an easy book to read. It’s pretty graphic and deals with some really traumatic material. That being said, the writing and the way this book is constructed is full of emotion and vulnerability and not like much I’ve read before.

Content warning: everything. Disturbing true crime and memoir of intergenerational trauma. Both nauseating and fascinating.
