Status Updates From The Love that Hurts: A Stor...

Its really intriguing to see the relationship between the abuser and its victim. The way he manipulates her into thinking it’s her fault, she deserves to be abused and him hurting her its for her own benefit makes my blood boil. I can see she’s trying to justify his actions because she’s clearly in love but it makes me so mad.

“Did you even hear the story about the frog in boiling water, Josefina?”
“There was a theory that if you dropped a frog in boiling water, they would obviously leap out to avoid heat. But they would say if you put a frog in rapid water and slowly raised the level of heat..”
“I didn’t feel the water getting hotter. So subtly rising in temperature one degree at a time.”

This book is so good. I don't think I've wanted a couple to work it out and get on the right road more than this couple. Very emotional and not too dark. The author does a great job of you knowing something happened, but not getting the graphic details each and everytime there is an incident. This is probably why I'm fighting for them to get their shit together.
