Reading this as an audiobook in little chunks because anything more than a chapter a day makes me angry, tbh.
Wild how little regard is paid to 50% of the global population. 😖
I found this picture of a club sandwich on Facebook and wrote this about it.

pickI finished my little Halloween Lego wreath and this book. I loved the insight into artistic inspiration but the domestic violence was hard to listen to. The insecurity/inner dialogue behind the violence was insightful and harrowing as you felt the frustration build. The dual time line was well done with characters in both mirroring each other which was fun until it was scary. There is a paranormal aspect to this story some might not buy into
In previous chapters we read about learning to trust ourselves, then this sentence appears! It is a terrifying perspective for those of us who have lived with domestic violence- but in a specific context it is most likely a vital truth. The context of fear, trust and safety- and how do we ever find it after the death of that experience? That is when we have to discern between fear because of danger vs fear because of trauma. Thoughts?
