 “What didn't kill me didn't make me stronger; what didn't kill me made me into a victim. But I made me stronger. I made me into a survivor.”

An AMAZING thriller. 🖤

The story is well made with two timelines. Some flashbacks could have been shorter in my opinion but they're important to understand the main timeline and give more insights on the main character personality and behaviors. 💡

Bi rep for the win🌈 

❗ This book also tackles pretty heavy topics (such as abuse and sexual assault), those part are often really hard to read and hugely heartbreaking. 

Be sure to check the trigger warnings and to take care of yourself. 💌
