24. Sapphire - Push
I tried several times to write a post about this book and what it meant to me, but I found that I couldn't do justice to my feelings without delving much further into my personal experiences as an abuse survivor than I wanted to in a public space.
I will say that this is one of the most powerful and brilliant novels that I have read. Do be careful if you are triggered by depictions of abuse -- each of us has to decide how much we can handle in that regard -- but ultimately I found the realism of it empowering and cathartic, and I did not regret my decision to read it.
