I have had to think about this book for a couple of days before writing a review; as this book is not only a page turner impossible to put down, but also disturbing and not for the light hearted. I found myself thinking about the little girl Ottile constantly and my heart broke many times throughout . Putting that aside, the story is very well written and flows effortlessly.Child abuse is always difficult to read but this story is graphic and doesn't leave much to the readers imagination as it is very obvious how horrifying Otille's home life is. Although I will say the ending was perfect and I was able to let out the breath I didn't know I was holding!
