5.0

As a woman who was once a girl and maybe still is , this book touched me profoundly. It was unapologetically dark and emotional without even having the tragic scenes described.
I was reading this book as YA and it shouldn’t be put in this genre
I will always have Sadie in a part of my heart I will always think about this book. I cried a lot at the end tears of anger, for Sadie for her sister mattie and for every girl who had to live this because it happened and is happening all around the world in this minute.

📍SPOILER”:
“Sadie is alive maybe not in the book but in my heart she is in my heart she runs away start a new life and have a daughter of her own somewhere else
As a girl this book represents my deepest fears abuse sexual abuse and losing my sister to a man”
