And as Flora twirled, other girls and women came through the field in all directions. Our heartache poured into one another like water from cup to cup. Each time I told my story, I lost a bit, the smallest drop of pain. It was that day I knew I wanted to tell the story of my family. Because horror on Earth is real and it is every day. It is like a flower or like the sun; it cannot be contained.

I love #scarybooks. Stephan King rules! But it takes a lot for a book to actually scare me. Stories that could actually happen, they scare me. Often, books that have horrible things happening to children or husbands, are haunting for me. The Lovely Bones, Room, The Last Lecture. They scare me. #somethingforsept

EchoMyEscape Such a haunting book !!! 8y
