this book was one of my favorites in high school, and i can see why. it’s a tough, thought-provoking, and moving read with a main character who is so important (even though she would hate to be described that way).

There were so many times I was angry and crying.
It’s not a hopeful read, but felt cathartic in its rawness.
“For truth and death are similar in that they both require a great courage if one wishes to face them. And truth is like death in that it kills”
An incredibly emotional read, that I think speaks to experiences of many women.
