Read for free during Riveted Lit’s fundraiser campaign for It Gets Better.Content Warning: Rape, Malfunctioning Parenting, Bullying It’s hard reading the top reviews for this book since my reactions are so wildly different. #OddOneOutLove Blind is a meaningful, funny, realistic, sarcastic, tale of t...

5/10/14: Holy shitballs. Talk about a heart breaking sucker-punch of a book. Everyone needs to read this. Review to come. 2/11/14: My review, originally posted here: www.thetometravellers.wordpress.com I’m not quite sure where to start with Fault Line. First of all, this book is about rape and I...

Hooray! This review is NOT particularly spoilery! One-sentence summary: A serviceable novel, written by someone experienced in the subject matter, covering an important topic from an interesting perspective, but ultimately not plotted complexly enough or written beautifully enough to be an enduri...

This review and others are posted at Inspiring Insomnia.2.5 starsFault Line is a little book (240 pages) about a big, awful subject: rape. It unflinchingly shows the devastating effects of rape, both on the victim and the victim’s loved ones. In this case, the story is complicated by the fact that...

My first thought was "Wow, this author is so brave to write a book about such a taboo subject!" Once I got into the guts of the book itself, my next thought was "holy crap! This author really gets into specifics!" My final thought after reading the book in it's entirety was "I hope this author will ...
