Finished.

Why do parents send their children to boarding schools?!!! Bad stories about boarding schools have been around forever and a day. The assaults this girl suffered were awful. Her parents should have stood up for her more. From the very first assault in her own home! And especially after the school assault! Also surprised me that the parents were (and maybe did) send their son to a boarding school. It does not surprise me that the school silenced this. I am appalled that the school is still in business. My gosh parents, stop sending your kids here.

The only thing I did not like about this book was that there were too many places were it did not hold my attention. Particularly in the first half.
