This book took a long time to get through. Hard to read in some parts. I guess I just couldn’t relate to the character or her situation.

I really enjoyed this very sad story of a very mixed up young woman. All at the hands of someone who you should be able to trust - a teacher. This poor woman’s life was basically destroyed for many years.

I felt the ending of the book was weak because it was so abrupt. With this being said, I still would recommend this book to a friend.

Once I started I literally could not stop. I was in deep. this story is beautifully written. But the storyline is so morally wrong I felt almost dirty enjoying it.
