I loved this book especially in the first three quarters except for that last quarter of the book where the story was reminded of chase andrews death. I feel like the ending was a bit rushed but meaningful. Reading the courtroom sessions was a DRAG to the point I just skimmed it. The story had a good meaning and the imagery and writing especially in the beginning was so good. My favorite area of the book was her childhood.
