I don’t know what to think of this book. There are a few parts that were shocking, but I think at the core it is about relationships and learning about yourself within relationships.
I like how the author showed the abusive relationships and how manipulated a person can be and even ultimately shaping how that person forms subsequent relationships. So much could be unpacked from this book.
