"Kellcey is a story everyone should read. It is especially timely in today’s “Me Too” era"

"Kellcey is a story everyone should read. It is especially timely in today’s “Me Too” era, but this narrative about the effects of a brutal sexual attack on a teenage girl is timeless. I’m neither young nor female, but I can vouch for the impact this memoir carries. I could feel her pain. It’s a message that we all have to hear. Rape is not just a horrible, traumatizing experience, it changes a victim’s life forever. It’s impact is not just physical; it’s emotional, psychological, and it destroys self-esteem. Just as importantly, the damage never completely goes away. This is not new information to those who pay attention to the plight of many women in today’s culture and throughout history. I have seen, firsthand, the lasting effect such abuse has on a woman even decades after it occurred. What may be new for some readers are the details of the abuse and the very real struggle that follows. We follow the life of Kacey Kells from an early teen to a young adult, and she pulls us into the memoir in the beginning and never lets us go."
