True Crime by Samantha Kolesnik

5.0

---

Kolesnik’s writing is exceptional and captivating, and it’s an odd phenomenon to admire the beauty in such a disturbing story. It was heartbreaking to be in Suzy’s head, contemplating if she has any goodness left in her after enduring so much harm and corrosion of her spirit. As the reader you often question if any of Suzy and Lim’s misdeeds can be justified or understood given everything they experienced. Can they be healed and rehabilitated? Are they too far gone?

Beautiful and brutal. Brutiful?
