I put off reading this book because I wasn't in the headspace to read about sisters being torn apart. But I am disappointed I did. Not just because I am a sucker for books about cults (because I am), but also because Courtney Summers's writing is beautiful and her depiction of healing, along with the unhealthy coping mechanisms we can take on instead of doing the work to heal, was amazing.

I honestly hadn't expected because Summers does such an amazing job weaving us into Lev's narrative just as he is weaving Lo into his.

I do want to warn some graphic depictions of violence towards the end to be aware of and mentions of abuse throughout.

This book was amazing, though, and I will probably reread it in the future.
