charlottejones952's review against another edition

challenging dark emotional informative sad slow-paced

2.0

I'll admit that I didn't complete the last 2 chapters but this was because of the content. This book is enlightening but tough so I don't know who I'd recommend to. Discussion of care work and ableism were fascinating but the trauma and surviverhood was too blunt and difficult to read for me.
