So this book was hard to read for multiple reasons, but I feel like it was worth reading. It was dark, harrowing, but also uplifting and about how the human spirit can overcome and survive. Who we are and how our identities are shaped by our past and our trauma. (Although I do wish the English hadn't been so broken, especially since she was a reader).
