My Body Keeps Your Secrets by Lucia Osborne-Crowley
5.0
TW: body image, mental health, sexual assault, physical assault.
In My Body Keeps Your Secrets, Lucia shares the voices of women and trans and non-binary people around the world, as well as her own deeply moving testimony. She writes of vulnerability, acceptance and the reclaiming of our selves, all in defiance of a world where atrocities are committed and survivors are repeatedly told to carry the weight of that shame.
This book took my breath away.
I related, I wept, I felt deeply.
I thought of my own experience, and never sharing until I was in my thirties and how lifting that emotional, mental and physical weight off me, how much better, safer and healtier I felt.
Thank you Lucia, it's exactly what I needed.
