"So it goes."
"So it goes." rated it 7 years ago

A rapist is the "nice man" or "freckle-faced neighbor" -- all rapists are "nice boys" (or nice girls) to ...

Trigger warning: Rape and eating disorder I have been loving Amy Hatvany for a while. I was glad to see her newest offering that takes a hard look at rape between childhood best friends, Amber and Tyler. I think that she did a very good job showing both Amber and Tyler's POV and even showing how A...

This book was a brave effort on the part of the author, to approach the issue of acquaintance rape, why it happens and how we can help prevent it by educating our children. While I was searching for more information about the author, I came upon a You Tube video of her talking about a similar event ...

Truly, truly one amazing book! Sitting at the pool on vacation wearing my shades, I read this book. I know it probably is not considered fun to cry on vacation but if you consider reading a book as fantastic as this, I had an amazing time. I heard this was an excellent book but I did not expect it...

Amy Hatvany's Safe With Me reels you in from the very first page. The characters and their actions are so real, you can't help but feel for them. The story is both heartbreaking and life-affirming. It makes you feel thankful for all you have, and for simply being alive. It makes you think about what...
