Well this was intense, my god. The first 60% just flies by, I read it in one sitting and only stopped as my son woke up from a nap!

I was just obsessed with this story, it's brutal and heart wrenching but completely beautiful by the end. One thing I actually really loved was that they weren't magically fine and together as soon as it was over, they were broken and needed time apart to heal and then eventually come together in a healthy way. It just felt like a more realistic view on how someone would need to recover from something as horrific as what Cora and Dean went through.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone, just take care and look up trigger warnings as this covers many and is very dark.
