alexdicanio's review against another edition

Disclaimer: I don’t rate memoirs.

This was an incredible memoir with a look at someone who has complex PTSD. If you’re thinking about reading this, please check trigger warnings. 

I loved the authors writing and style. This was so visceral and made me feel so many emotions from sadness to anger to joy and heartbreak. I highly recommend.
