Despite how extremely dark this book is, it holds a place in my heart. The resilience Addie has and the portrayal of PTSD brought up emotions from my own past I wasn’t quite aware I was ready to face head on yet. A very healing read for me, which is probably not what I or anyone else would expect. Either way, I loved this book, and it’s getting a reread at some point so I can annotate the heck out of it.
I also would’ve rated 5 stars but I felt the conclusion was rushed.
