5.0

I was worried this would be too hard to read and that I wouldn’t get through it. It was painful to read but I am very glad I read the whole thing. Ms. Miller is incredibly talented and her words are powerful.

“I had a voice. He stripped it, left me groping around blind for a bit, but I always had it. I just used it like I never had to use it before. I do not owe him my success, my becoming, he did not create me. The only credit Brock can take is for assaulting me, and he could never even admit to that.” -Chanel Miller

The sweet words at the ending are ones that many who grieve desire to hear. A beautiful, heartbreaking tale.
