This isn't one for the faint of heart. I found myself wincing at some of the descriptions. There's a fair bit of gore mentioned in detail. 

However, I loved how the stories of all the women in this book were told, they felt real. An excellent example of a story written from the female gaze! These women had real struggles that weren't put on show like trauma porn. Thier stories were respectfully told with a clear undercurrent of feminism that I found very refreshing.
