pithypants reviewed Know My Name by Chanel Miller
Review of 'Know My Name' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
A terrible topic, presented in a compelling way. It's impossible to read this without feeling outraged on Chanel's behalf. Her experience shows how the U.S. justice system is broken, and how survivors of sexual assault are victimized twice – once by the original crime, and again in court. Absolutely infuriating.
I listened to this as an audiobook, which the author reads herself, and there are times when she has to pause and take deep breaths before continuing to read. This glimpse behind her composure underscores how absolutely courageous she is.
This should be required reading.
