The Fact of a Body: A Murder and a Memoir by Alexandria Marzano-Lesnevich

challenging dark emotional reflective sad tense slow-paced

3.5

This was one of the most difficult books to get through based on content that I have recently read. The story centers on repeated instances of childhood abuse and trauma. I went into the book thinking it would have more theoretical law concepts woven into the true crime and memoir elements, but the legals aspects were minimal. While there certainly were important topics covered, it was such a tough read to get through that I had to carefully chose when I would read the book.
