Brutta!

The narrative jumps through different periods of her early life, creating a layered story. I wonder what inspired her to tell her story this way and how it affected the emotional impact.

The detailed accounts of abuse and neglect were hard to read but also made me think about how childhood trauma shapes us. Would love to hear if others felt similarly or if it brought up personal memories.

This memoir feels incredibly genuine and unflinching. I'm curious whether the author revisited her past multiple times or relied on her memories alone when writing.
