Hope: A Memoir of Survival in Cleveland by Amanda Berry

4.0

Holy shit I am SICK TO MY STOMACH!!!! Ariel Castro I hope you burn in hell for eternity.

In absolute awe of Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus resilience and bravery. Reading their story had me crying and feeling nauseaus, but at the same time I was so inspired by their hope and motivation to keep going. I know I would not be able to survive a situation like that, I would simply k*ll myself! I read this for my trauma informed counseling class and I’m gonna need my own trauma counseling after reading this lol. I spent day and night thinking about Amanda and Gina and their suffering. Mad on their behalf, mad at Castro, mad at the police for not finding them, mad that there are people in this world like Castro.
