Disturbes the comfortable, but Comforts the disturbed.

As a fellow trafficking survivor, it's extremely hard to find books, (or people for that matter), that I feel like "Get me". most things feel... superficial. surface-level at best. like reading from an outsiders perspective. I haven't even finished this book, but this is one of the only stories I feel connected to. it feels like someone finally "gets" what I have gone through. Because of that, it's a surprisingly comforting book. it feels like I finally found the validation I needed all these years. like it's telling me that yes, it was really that bad. it's especially so because the book was written by a fellow survivor. it's rare to find people like me nowdays.
