I didn't actually finish this one, due to the graphic description of child sexual abuse in an early scene.

I’m totally unable to put my finger on it just yet but something about this really struck a chord with me.

And something else about Charis in particular. I’ll be thinking about her for a long while.
It is of course, well written.

CW for: abuse/child abuse/sexual abuse/sexul abuse of a child/suicide/abandonment
It is not a lighthearted story obviously, but neither is it without Light and hope and even humor- much like life.

"From shell shock in World War I to childhood sexual abuse today, the reality of trauma has been denied. But as this indispensable book makes clear, ‘Remembering and telling the truth about terrible events are prerequisites both for the restoration of the social order and for the healing of individual victims.'"
