That said, the descriptions in this novel were wonderful, coming from someone who has never been to any of the locations. I wouldn't suggest this book to anyone triggered by sexual assault (or assault in general) as there are a few graphic scenes in the book. ![]() I just wish there was a little warning somewhere about the triggering events in the book (maybe I missed it?).
