I received this book as a gift from my bestie, Christina. All opinions are my own. ππππ My Dark Vanessa by Kate Elizabeth Russell. This book was different for me. For a few chapters in I really wanted to believe this was a true love story and the more I read the more I had to read only realizing that this was a very troubled adult trapped in a traumatic teenage experience. Alternating between the present and the past this is a story that will make you rethink everything you know about consent, harrassment, assault, and the lines love can draw. The entire book I kept thinking she’s going to snap into reality any moment now. Seventeen years of a story she will never snap out of now……it is a very scary thought process in the mind of Vanessa Wye. Step into the world of a perfectly groomed survivor that has only begun to realize the strength she is capable of.
