In this volume there is not as much physical violence and conflict as in volume 1. The author gives us a glimpse about the brunette's feelings towards the blonde. At the same time that I feel that she likes the blonde (romantically) I am in doubt by her words and actions. But then I remember how complicated this woman is and how traumatized she is too ... So I think she might like the blonde romantically, but she can't admit it to herself, as that would be a form of weakness . Sometimes I think she is afraid to lower her walls to the blonde, afraid of being hurt even more by her than by the men in her life. Because even when she was hurt by her abusers, she didn't love them. Anyway ... Great volume and I'm really angry with the blonde's brother.
