Ultimately, the bad guys are the males who committed these crimes, but I like that the justice system was put on display in this one too, because it's a sad reality for many assault victims, that they are made to share the blame and they rarely find justice.

Like you, I could see myself in Ellie as well, and I feel like her character will resonate with a lot of readers. I also loved Ellie's dad. I couldn't be mad at him for what had happened because at the end of the day, he had tried his best but knowing that broke my heart even more. Great review, Sam!
