This book was advertised as the story of a woman learning more about her family’s history and it’s secrets. In actuality, it reads more like a young woman’s therapy journal. The writing is overall confusing, repetitive, nonlinear, and bitter. She still has a long way to go in terms of healing and I truly wish her the best on her journey.
Moderate: Emotional abuse, Misogyny, Racism, Self harm, Terminal illness, Toxic relationship, Child abuse, Death of parent, Death, Domestic abuse, Gaslighting, Infidelity, Mental illness, Physical abuse, Racial slurs, and Sexual assault
