In the Dream House: A Memoir by Carmen Maria Machado
5.0
As a victim of domestic abuse, this was a hard read, but I also had not felt so heard.
“My queen…your words are very pretty. And yet they cannot obscure the simple fact that I have seen your zoo.”
This line hit me hard especially because I was used to so many pretty wrapped up promises and declarations of love knowing deep down that his words are meaningless or there’s too much damage done to be able to fix what he had broken.
Highly recommend this book! Amazing, beautifully written, and also devastatingly sad.
