It's a horrible read, as many others have already pointed out, but I believe that the only way to bring stories like these, that tell of such gruesome, infuriating injustices, to light, to bring them Out of Darkness, is to read them.
To carry with oneself all of the stories that have stayed in the dark for so long, in order to finally give them a voice.

I feel like I'm all over the place with this book...
It's not quite 4-star read for me but 3 stars don't feel like enough either. Part of me feels like the author chose the perfect title for this book, while another part of me feels like that title offers too much hope. Readers will understand.
