Sometimes really dark, bleak stories can be too much for me, but it sounds like Demetrios infuses this one with enough hope that I could be into it.

It's such an incredibly important issue to tackle, especially because some of the warped and unhealthy relationships depicted in YA (and other) literature that aren't acknowledged and are portrayed in a light that suggests they're healthy. I'm glad to hear you liked it so much and how well it dealt with this important topics. <br /><br />Great review, Alyssa!<br /><br />Ashtyn @ <a href="%E2%80%9Dwonderlandsreader.blogspot.com%E2%80%9D" rel="nofollow">Wonderland’s Reader!</a>Ashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10824421758203354453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-34493978295406112052017-06-18T23:03:35.015-04:002017-06-18T23:03:35.015-04:00I really need to pick up one of Demetrios's bo...I really need to pick up one of Demetrios's books! I had a review copy of this but had to pass it on because like you, these tough-issue contemporaries aren't really my style. But I also think this book is super important, especially with the mc's character growth and how she learns to stand up to the abusive people around her. <br /><br />Overall, this just sounds heart-achingly realistic and necessary, especially with the amount of abusive relationships (be it romantic or familial) that people find themselves trapped in today. Wonderful review!<br /><br />- Aila @ <a href="onewayoranauthor.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow">One Way Or An Author</a>Aila https://www.blogger.com/profile/18006135801041122020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-34777262896627327632017-06-18T22:55:23.750-04:002017-06-18T22:55:23.750-04:00I started reading the first chapter excerpt of thi...I started reading the first chapter excerpt of this book- and really liked the writing.
