This book was extremely heartfelt but a very difficult read. It brings to light many problems in our society and though not a fun read a very important one. It's good to know that people can recover from trauma. I did think the pace was quite slow and sometimes I felt like things were overexploited, but overall it was a good book. I've never seen a style of writing like it before.
