This book absolutely destroyed me and yet I couldn't put it down. Stayed up until 2am reading it. Honestly I can't decide if I would recommend it to anyone. Very well written, so well written that it will make you feel the desperation of Tess and an absolute hate for men and society. Unexpected ending. Depressing and yet very thought provoking.
