I know this story is awful. like beyond what most good hearted people can fathom, but it is true. I bet the author wanted to get the ugly ugly truth out there about our backwards world. Yes, this girl was groomed and it is sick and disgusting. Yet, she had zero people to tell her..
Review from Salt to the Sea →
loved this book so much! the narrator is easy to listen to and has a nice and consistent tone throughout the book. she is a great story teller. the book gets a bit slow in the middle in my opinion, but it is beautifully and artfully written. I own this in paper form as well..
When it comes down to facts. You can make this character have the toughest childhood and whatever disabilities caused from that. IT DOESN’T EXCUSE A BOOK THAT ENCOURAGES PEDOPHILES OR IN ANY WAY MAKES AN ACCEPTION FOR HIS BEHAVIOR. She was a child. He was a man!! EVEN IF HE FELT REGRET! F A PEDO..
Really made me feel uncomfortable. I couldn’t finish it. Who even approved this book to be published.
Review from Forever, Jack →
I absolutely love this storyline, it has all the pieces a cute love story needs…
It was an amazing book, I listened to it in 2 days, couldn’t stop. Felt weird and wrong to like it that much. It is good to hear perspectives that don’t make sense to us, because they’re real.
Content warning: I am so appalled by this book. I tried to finish it but couldn’t. I read over half the book but when I got to the very descriptive scene of a child giving a man a handjob I could not go any further. Just because the man felt guilt afterward does not make..
This book was one that I would find any reason to get in the car and go somewhere just so I could continue listening. Considering the age of the main character, some parts of the story were difficult to get through. All in all it was a decent story line.

Wonderful fictional story based on a real life event. Really moving, marvellous narration. Worth a listen!
Review from Liar’s Bench →
Riveting listen, there is a liar’s bench in every place anywhere in the world. Fascinating way lies always unravel to expose truth, sometimes cold justice for victims, unnerving exposure of the brutality of racism then that still exists today, the truth of domestic abuse. Excellent narration.
