In the darkness, as I lay on the bed, tears streaming down my face, the weight of my story pressed against me like a suffocating fog.

Echoes from the Void is a brutally honest and deeply moving memoir that took me on a harrowing journey through Sophia Cross's traumatic past. From childhood abuse to addiction and the emergence of her alter ego. Her story is one of survival, pain, and the complexities of identity. I was left questioning whether this destructive path is a choice or the only way to endure.

Having experienced trauma firsthand, this book really challenges the usual ideas about trauma and healing. It shows how the line between victim and perpetrator can often be much blurrier than we think. With themes of addiction, mental health, and self-destruction, it's not an easy read (it took me a while to get through), but it offers a deep reflection on the price of survival and the hope of finding wholeness.
Echoes from the Void is a stark, unapologetic exploration of the darkness within, and the hope for healing that lies beyond it.
