In This Iron Ground by Marina Vivancos
5.0
I didn't know anything about this book when I started it, other than that I've enjoyed other books by the author. In This Iron Ground ended up being beautiful and sometimes poetic, as well as devastatingly sad.
In the start of the book, Damian is living with an abusive foster family after his parents are killed. As the story progresses from Damian age 12 to Damian age 19, we see the way Damian feels so completely unworthy of anything good or positive in his life. His inner thoughts made me tear up or outright cry several times. I wanted any of the characters to he able to read his thoughts and tell him he was wrong, give him a hug. Good thing this is fiction and so beautifully written. Loved it.
