The end had me crying so hard. And the beginning had me horrified.
It was a difficult but important read that will absolutely stick with me.  So well written, so heart breaking.  It took me months to get through the first half, but the last 30 pages or so flew by—I couldn’t put it down.  My heart hurts, but I’m glad I read it.
