This is a very important book. It made me terrified. I am terrified.
If there was a required reading list for every human, this would be on it. So much interesting info that hasn’t typically been covered in the domestic violence literature that I’ve read—batterer intervention programs and bail statutes, especially. While the book’s subject matter was obviously tragic, it was heartening to learn about how much progress has been made in just the past 20 years with agency cooperation, laws and policies, and education. A+ read that I’ll be recommending to everyone I know.
Excellent. 5/5 stars for what it is, the only reason I'm giving it 4 is because I only give 5 stars to books I super, super love, and this one is too hard to love. For the right reasons.
