Gripping. A trip back in time when talking to people on-line was thought to be safe. Lots of twists and turns that kept me guessing and eagerly turning the page. Heartbreaking. Delves thoughtfully into the ways men and women experience the world due to the fear of sexual violence. Sometimes the pace was a little slow, but mostly the narrative kept me interested.
