This is one of the best books I have listened to on Audible. It is unsettling , it is painful, it is beautiful. A lot of people are put off because the topic of statutory rape arises in this book. That is off putting and disturbing. It is supposed to be. a lot of things in life are. This side of the story does not make this topic any less disturbing, but it is a great attempt at reminding us that not everything is what it seems from the outside perspective. And that only the individual can really decide what is best for themselves.
