Know My Name: The Survivor of the Stanford Sexual Assault Case Tells Her Story by Chanel Miller

emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad tense slow-paced

5.0

best book i've ever read at this point in time. i laughed, teared up, sobbed, and did it all over again while reading this book – definitely my book i'd recommend everyone to read at least once before they die. chanel's writing is so evocative, absolutely stunning, she's captured the complex subject matters she writes about and has articulated them so clearly. the cruelty of the justice system towards victims of assault, the ramifications that ripple out and beyond, over the years, the absurdity and unfairness of how easily perpetrators can get away with their crimes – i felt it all and more. bought this book after reading her victim impact statement, and i am so so glad i did :' such an important book
