It Ends with Us

I've finally decided to write my thoughts on this so buck up to hear what a real life domestic violence survivor thinks.

Truthfully, what annoyed me the most about this book is that it had great potential to show representation for victims. I would've loved to have been able to read this and see the light at the end of the tunnel with her getting justice AND a happy ending. They should co-exist when it comes to a story and subject like this.

I really hated seeing people read this and see the ignorance of those you said “she's such an idiot for staying” or things along those lines. I think if you don't understand or haven't experienced something quite like this then you shouldn't make those comments. Leaving a relationship like this is easier said than done. It took me five years.

I didn't want Ryle to have any form of a redemption arc. He doesn't deserve one. No one like him ever deserves one.

Overall, this just left me, a survivor, disappointed.
