This book was amazing and devastating. I expected it to be dark and sad but it really sent me spiraling. If you have experienced sexual trauma I would really be careful reading this book. I almost quit halfway through because it was really that hard of a read for me. With that being said I kept reading it, I wanted to know that Vanessa found a little bit of peace by the end of it all. I related so much to her which I think is why I couldn't give up on the book. I've honestly never read something that made me feel so many emotions and cry so much for a character.
I might update this review with more of my thoughts because this book is just a lot to take in.
