"I liked the sketch," I said.
"Why?"
"Because it looks just like my chair."
"Is that the only reason?"
"It holds something," I said
"What?"
"Emotion."
"Tell me," Dante said.
"It's sad, It's sad and it's lonely."
"Like you," he said
I hated that he saw who I was. Im not sad all the time," I said.
I'm so confused what I'm going to feel
I don't know. I never thought it would end like this. And let me not eat the right of the book, I love the girl character. The girl immediately did not develop feelings for the person who kidnapped her and never stopped trying to escape, so I loved the girl. At the same time, in the book, the author processed the warmth and inclusiveness of nature, the artificiality and dullness of humanity very well. The fact that Ty was not my type with the age difference between Ty and Gemma made it difficult for me to connect between the characters, and I liked both of them as separate characters. The author's language was fluent and gripping. It was a great book about nature, the plasticization of humanity, how lonely a person actually needs someone who can understand himself or resembles himself.

i lost my trust to the book blogger whose recommend this book. and the writer who write the introduction … after i read the introduction i was expecting some impressive facts about the way we (as a woman) embrace the things that the patriarchy enforce us. like i was waiting to say “i didn’t think about it in that way.”. that isolated girl whose (i think) supposed to make the 39 women and the reader question about the things which seems normal to them but does no such thing. rather than questioning she ALWAYS says “iM diFeRrent FroM yOu”. nothing makes the character reasonable in the story. what was the point of writing an isolated girl in a dozens of women if you just write a lonely woman story?
additionally, the author training to be a doctor and drop it. then explaining the medical things which refer to this knowledge, i guess and while writing the women genitals she proudly says the word “hymen” but she completely wrong by the knowing the meaning and the function of it.
if i wanted to read a woman whose escaped from a bunker and trying to find back home, i would select the book.
it is not a feminist book, not a well written book. keeping on the toes? no. keeping the hope? maybe. just a plain book who does not deserve so much hype.
FİNALLY
I think I can say it’s one of the rare English books I finished in one sitting. While listening and reading, I knew many things were waiting for me, but not all of them. Some things shocked me, and with some, I found myself saying, "How is this possible?" Is everyone living a completely different life behind the camera? Is no one aware of what others are going through? But it ended well, didn’t it? The bad ones were punished, and the good ones, despite the harm they suffered, managed to survive. This was like a very realistic fairy tale, with the only bad part being that everything was real. One of the beautiful aspects of the book was how easy it was to read, and while listening, feeling like Shari, becoming her, I thought many times, "How could she endure all this?" Because after living through these things, writing about them as well... I hope more people, especially children in similar situations, are saved from such circumstances. And throughout the book, I think the part I loved most was the dedication.
"To anybody who has been silenced, gaslit, abused, or lonely.
You are stronger than you know.
May earthly and heavenly angels lift you up."
And as Shari said, "Finally, it ends here."

Bir cehennem olmuş olsan seni kanla söndürürüm!
