This story drew me in from the get go. The Characters were relatable and easy to get to know.
the story was very hard hitting, Opens yours eyes to what goes on in schools to the teenagers.
Just as powerfully, it also shows the devastation felt by survivors of assault, who are often made to feel insignificant, dishonest and even crazy. Quinn's character, in particular, is brilliantly written. Though she breaks down, can't handle certain situations, and turns to a few unhealthy coping mechanisms before she finds help and hope, you never doubt for a second that she is brave and strong, valuable and worthy. I love that we see her friends' Points of view too, so as readers we learn ways of supporting our loved ones as they work through their hardest, darkest times.
I would for sure advise people to give this book a read, but to do it with Caution due to the matter it covers.
