Really hard read. I was so, so angry after reading this. It hurt knowing that this book is a reflection of reality. #feminism
I would raise the rating but it maybe traumatized me, and even though it’s good enough to reread, I’m not sure I could go through that again. (Which is also why the sequel “Us Against You” will forever remain on my TBR list)
