lmshearer's review

challenging dark emotional reflective sad fast-paced

4.0

This is one of the best memoirs I've read in a while. A clear story told well, I read this in an afternoon and look forward to seeking out more works by this author.

If you're reading a later edition, please skip the Prologue, as it has spoilers. The copy I had was from the first run, but I had been warned ahead of time to steer clear. Please also check the content warnings before reading.
