The Reformatory

I've heard a lot of love for this book and I'd enjoyed short stories by Tananarive Due before, so I had a feeling I'd enjoy this, but I didn't know just how much I would adore The Reformatory. This book was an absolute masterpiece from start to finish and I wouldn't have changed a single thing about it. I'm so glad that I finally read it and I'm going to shove this beautiful, sad story at everyone I possibly can.

Thank you to the publisher for the gifted copy! All thoughts are honest and my own.
