Kindle Notes & Highlights
She put her hand to her stomach again. Was the child that was growing inside of her a girl? What sort of world was Faith bringing her into—a place where young girls were molested by their fathers, where magazines told them they would never be perfect enough, where sadists could take you away from your life, your own child, in the blink of an eye and thrust you into a living hell for the rest of your life?
Parenting is horrifying. Or what if it’s a boy? And he grows up to be another reason for people’s suffering?
Will rolled her onto her stomach, pushing her flat against the wood floor. He grabbed both her hands in one of his, squeezing them together so she couldn’t fight him. Without even thinking, he reached down and ripped away her underwear. Her nails dug into the back of his hand as he slid his fingers inside her.
YOOOOOOO assault??? Will has been on his worst behavior 🥲 idk what to think after Angie was basically like “tell whoever she is that I said ‘thank you’” …… like I’m conflicted. They just be raping each other I guess
She twisted around and scratched Tom’s face, digging her fingernails into his eyes. She used every part of her body—her hands, her feet, her teeth—to fight him. She would not give in. She would kill him with her bare hands if she had to.
Get it, girl. Faith, I hope you kill the ever living fuck out of this bucktooth hick. I believe in you

I remember quite clearly waking up in the middle of the night, sneaking into my older sister’s room, holding a flashlight under my chin and whispering, “Who’s killing the children?” She would start screaming, I would get scared by her screaming and start screaming myself, and then I would start crying, and then my parents would come in and punish my sister for making me so upset.
