Praise for this book

Anguish is in many ways unexpected, surprising in its plot revelations, and so adept at navigating a subject matter that is either handled with melodrama or not handled enough at all. It's also heartbreaking and touches that tender place in the human psyche that we so desperately need it to, for some, in order that they may know that they are not alone. - Author Nina Day Gerard
