My Review
As a fellow survivor, I connected with the Rachel's writing. The raw emotions that are eloquently delivered on a platter of prose and poetry pulled at my heart strings. Rachel writes from the memories of an 11-year-old girl who experienced things that no one should have to endure. We also read the thoughtfulness of adult Rachel who looks back on those times with brutal honesty. Some of the moments aren't pretty, but they are real and perfect examples that everyone heals and deals in their own way. I am so grateful there is nonfiction work like Broken Places available for those of us who need to know we aren't alone and that our feelings are valid.
