Drovane was worse than prison: at least in prison there are guards, and even the worst prisons on earth have some semblance of control and protection.

The RRP is the suggested or Recommended Retail Price of a product, set by the publisher or manufacturer. There are parts where I cringed at how Tanszer would minimize or explain away the terrible things her parents did to her. In the end, I got the impression she was articulating her feelings at the time because by the end of the story we have a very good picture of her relationship with them. I really appreciated how she articulated the complexities of her relationship with her family. It is so toxic, but she seems to always hold out hope that they truly care.V istom momente som sa zamyslela nad tým, či táto kniha nie je príliš pokroková na Slovensko.
