Why read it?

1 author picked Yara as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This author blows me away with her unflinching approach to sex and sexuality.

This exposes complex and rarely approached relationships in a fresh and startling way. The issue of pain transference isn’t something often dealt with in fiction.
