A review by babyv
Know My Name by Chanel Miller
4.5
*4.5 rounded up.
i think this memoir is a very important one. i think Chanel’s case is probably similar to that of a lot of women’s. i appreciate her sharing her experience with the justice system because she shows us first hand why so many victims never pursue justice. the system is re-traumatizing and so often doesn’t provide a fair outcome. i think her story will be widely relatable and helpful for other people who have been through similar things.
my only complaint was that i felt the book could’ve been edited down just a smidge- there were a few times where i felt like i was hearing the same thing over and over again or we were spending a lot of time on a a tangent that didn’t quite connect.
