#3Books #thatmademeuncomfortable (or in this case, one big book)

I can only recall one book that made me uncomfortable. I love IT and have re-read it over the years but there is one part that I just can‘t wrap my head around! 🤯

Once again I enjoyed these books but each had an under lying current that left me uncomfortable and unsettled.

#3books #thatmademeuncomfortable
(1) The Diver's Clothes Lie Empty, a 2nd person narrator which felt strange at some points
(2) The Piano Teacher, weird and violent sexual acts
(3) Extreme makeover, a scene with a person stuck in a pig's body, otherwise a great read

It isn‘t always easy to find pieces of yourself in someone‘s else story but it can be enlightening and can help you put the pieces together to help make sense of yourself.

▪️I loved IT, but there were parts....ick
▪️Sold was incredible and sad and appalling.
▪️I read PofT when I was 17 at the recommendation of my favorite teacher. I actually put it down and vowed to never finish it because it made me so uncomfortable, but she talked me into finishing. I can't say I loved it, but I am glad I saw it through to the end.

I won‘t say why here because it‘s best you dive into these books without prior knowledge. But you may want to check out reviews for trigger warnings.

Killing one‘s father and marrying your mom; killing your child so slavery can‘t destroy her; alcoholic, distant parents who send you to Indian school - unh the deep sadness and tragedy
