Description

Worthy of note: whilst there are no explicit scenes including rape or sexual assault, the author is abused by her older, adult brother and describes an incident in which he calls her a slut/whore and tries to pull off her clothes. In another scene, he forces her to sit on his lap. Although handled sensitively, these scenes may be disturbing. The brother referenced above ends up marrying someone he met when he was 28 and she was a senior in high school. Although there is no indication of a sexual relationship before they got married, the author lays out the brother's pattern of gaslighting and abuse with his previous girlfriends.
