4.5
I'll be honest - after about 30 or so pages, I wasn't sure how I felt about this book. Tamblyn's writing style is stunning and unique, but... There was something I wasn't sure about.
Fast forward a few hours later and I've finished. It's a difficult, but readable, read. I think the author does an incredible job writing about the culture surrounding sexual assault. It is brutal at times, but extremely honest.
Extremely difficult read but am glad to have read it.
