I completely understand this. Reading about the abuse weren't my favorite scenes. Luckily throughout most of the book, Eve grows and we don't see scenes like that too often in her adulthood. Thank you!kimmyschemy06 wrote:This sounds very interesting. However, I don't feel very comfortable reading about abuse especially inflicted by the parents on a child. Great job on the review. Congratulations to Rachel McClellan on such an obviously well-written book.

I bought the book today and read it all in one sitting! I absolutely loved it and you are right this is more fantasy than anything. this is definitely a dark book but in a very good way. The dark stuff keeps the book very interesting. You were right to give this book a 4-star rating I'll be getting the second book tomorrow. I must know what happens!!!hsimone wrote:Thank you, Swiftmover07! It was fantastic and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Let me know what you think if/when you do get to read it! Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

I completely understand. As far as I remember there weren't a ton of scenes like this, but definitely a few and there were described pretty well.greenstripedgiraffe wrote:sounds like an interesting read, but I don't know if I will feel comfortable reading through the whole book. Thank you for the warning about the sorts of objectionable items that occur within the text.
