katlouisee's review against another edition

The audio quality was kinda bad so it didn't make for smooth listening or do the content justice. I wasn't rushing back to it and decided to return the library loan early so hopefully another reader can have a better experience

This is an emotional journey of the ripple effects of sexual assault. It is both healing and triggering. Some essays reached me deeper than others but they were all reflective and shine a light on the culture we have that allows these sexual assaults to continue.
