Although of course impossible to call an enjoyable read, this book was perfectly approached, written and handled, despite the harrowing horrific nature of its content. A book that despite all, had a hopeful and powerful air to survivorship, as well as being informative, to the point and unapologetic. A hard read, but worth every word.

A good overview of the Nassar scandal. My main complaint is that this seemed like the authors were just regurgitating information already put out by others; I didn’t feel that they did much investigating themselves.
