I think the book did a good job showing the complications in an abusive relationship. Where it‘s not all black and white. Do I think the writing at times could have been better. Yes. But still good.

I cringed a lot reading this book because a lot of it reminded me of my sister and when she was in an abusive relationship. She said these words to me and no matter what I said it did she stayed with him for 10 years. There were a lot of times I felt sick reading this book but I was hooked and wanted to see a happy ending for Alex. Good news is my sister isn't with that guy and is married to a good guy now.
I knew what was going to happen when I started this book but that didn't stop me from feeling helpless for Alex and a little annoyance. Abusive relationships are complicated for those trapped in one and or those witnessing someone they love being in one. This book did an excellent job showing that. I was perpetually in a state of anxiety and hopelessness for the character. The best books bring out all kind of emotions like this one did for me.
I need help! I don't know which book I should read next! 🙈
