Welcome to Litsy!

This book was quite the ride. There's so many twists and turns along the way. You just don't know who is capable of what including the main character. The plot was clever and well written building to an explosive ending. I figured out some parts but not all of it which is always good in a book. Its hard to know who to trust in this. Even Emily herself comes across as unreliable at times and yet I did warm to her by the end. ##Netgalley 4*

This was a tough book to read due to the subject matter of child pedophilia. It‘s dark, sad, and kind of brutal to get through it. Can‘t say I enjoyed reading it but it was evocative and made you think what would you do in this situation? I did learn a few things so I‘ll take that away from it but would I recommend it? No

This book! This is so hard to review because I can‘t say I “enjoyed” it but I did think this was an exceptional story. I felt all the feels. The amount of anger I felt at each of the characters at various points was next level, but I still found myself tearing up at the end (while walking around the grocery store, mind you). This is a complex story with trigger warnings aplenty but if you are able I highly recommend. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
