Phira’s Reviews > My Dark Vanessa > Status Update

I like how Henry was brought into the picture and interpreted as. I love the stories progress sm.

Everything written is me exactly

“Why is everyone so scared to admit how good that can feel? To be groomed is to be loved and handled like a precious, delicate thing.” She dexcribes everything so perfectly.

“She didnt understand the horror of watching your body star in something your mind didnt agree to” IF THAT AINT THE BEST DESCRIPTION OF RAPE I EVER HEARD…

“I had no reason to care abt rape then— i was a lucky kid, safe and securely loved— but that story hit me hard. Somehow i sensed what was coming for me even then. Really, though, what girl doesnt? It looms over you, that threat of violence. They drill the danger into your head until it starts to feel inevitable. You grow up wondering when its finally going to happen” WHAAAAAT. THIS IS AMAZING.

This just keepd getting better and better

Vanessa’s whole life is so similar to mine. Like why are we the exact same. Down to every last thought and feeling we are the same.

Oh Vanessa. You and I dont know how to say no and we get caught up in situations like that where we feel nothing and dont understand its wrong. We feel obligated but we arent. Fuck.

I keep forgetting to update this. I have a crush on Mr. Strane. Everythifn Vanessa is saying about him is just SO similar to how I feel. Thw way the author writes it is so perfectly described. I love this book so much.

I just finished the first chaptwr and oh my gosh. Me and Vanessa are so similar. From the sexting, screwing around with an adult when youre a minor, and the smoking weed and passing out… i KNOW this book is about to become my whole heart.
