4.5
One of the most heartbreaking books I’ve ever read. Brilliantly written and graphic given some of the topics. Although a really good book, not something I’d recommend to just anyone - please see content warnings before reading. I work in trauma MH and this was a tough one for me to get through.
Graphic: Mental illness and Child abuse
Moderate: Suicide attempt, Torture, and Suicidal thoughts
