Horrific subject matter - executed badly.
I read the great reviews. At the end of the day, for me, it was heavy-handed, unbelievable and reeks of being salacious for the sake of it. As a therapist, I wondered if she had done much research on childhood sexual abuse and trauma. I am not wary of difficult subject matter - or epically long stories. I am wary of flat, inconsistent characters with unlikely story arcs particularly when it is wrapped in a horrific child abuse narrative.
