dark emotional informative fast-paced

2.5

This book made me uncomfortable in a way I wasn’t expecting. Writing-wise, it needs further editing and tlc, with certain emotions being written on the page but not translated in the impact. I cannot stress that I really regret ordering online and not flicking through this in the shop, as I probably wouldn’t have picked it up if I’d have known it was written in diary format. 

Her inclusion of her son made me personally uncomfortable. So many details offered out into the world by his mother, just didn’t sit right with me. 

In spite of this, of course the book was powerful and informative. A very eye opening (if not singular) view of a horrible experience that left a family broken. But I’m grateful to have read it, to learn more about this horrific form of abuse and hopefully have the skills to spot it amongst friends if I unfortunately should need to in the future.
