Know My Name by Chanel Miller
emotional
inspiring
medium-paced
5.0
Chanel Miller’s memoir about the aftermath of her assault at a college frat party is a powerful and devastating read as she goes into her experience of being forced to fight in the legal system instead of being allowed time to heal. She articulates the inexcusable double standards that survivors are held to and what it feels like to exist as a woman with painful accuracy. While this is by no means an easy read because of the content, it is so well written that I couldn’t put it down.
