Absolutely incredible, it just pulled me straight in! Tessa’s story was so powerful, and the way it explored the justice system and how it fails victims of sexual assault was done in such a sharp, honest way. It didn’t feel overexplained or preachy, but it still hit hard.

I liked how raw it felt; emotional without being overly sentimental, and it really captured the shift in Tessa’s perspective without losing who she was. There were moments that genuinely made me pause just to take them in.

To all the victims out there… you are not alone ❤️.
