CONTENT WARNING: child sexual abuse and pedophilia

This book was rough. Point blank. Fabrico writes about a subject matter we would like to pretend doesn’t happen, especially in families, but it sadly does, and it’s absolutely terrifying. As you follow Laura as she processes and copes with the abuse that happens to her, you’re left feeling angry, uncomfortable, and sick, and hoping that she’s able to come out of this knowing that this situation doesn’t define her as a person. 

Fabrico is a brilliant story teller. You feel like you’re in Laura’s head as she’s processing and are her biggest supporter. She writes in a way that portrays so the passage of time in Laura’s life in such a quick, fast-paced book.

Because of the subject matter, it’s not a book that I can just suggest to anyone, but if you’ve read the content warnings and feel like it’s something you can handle reading, I would absolutely recommend you add this to your list for the year!
