THE BRUTAL REVENGE OF A SURVIVOR ~ Foul is Fair by Hannah Capin

18 February 20205 February 2020 ~ Kathy H. ~ 14 Comments

Stories about rape survivors exist - I've read some of them. Stories like this one? About the brutal and bloody revenge of a survivor? It's the first time I've read one like it. Definitely worth reading my review, if you ask me.
