I can see why this one wouldn’t be for everyone. It’s cruel and dark and funny at times but then you feel bad for laughing because all of this is so messed up. It told a story about bravery among women and that’s how I’m choosing to see the story. Some characters were infuriating and some instances were infuriating. But this one is gonna stick with me for a long time.
