"Rape Girl" is a relatively short read with a lot of impact on its respective subject matter. I'll admit I read this book inside an hour (it was around 100 some pages in my galley) and it hit me emotionally with quite a few turns, though there were some issues with it.From the beginning of the narra...
This is a super short book but I have to say I was pretty pleased with it. My library didn't have it--of course--and I requested it through the inter-library loan system but they purchased a copy using something called the ZIP program. I'm not sure I understand what it does entirely, but I do know t...
3.5 stars.Rape Girl is a quick read, but it's by no means an easy one. That's pretty obvious from the provocative title. It says it all, really - this book is about a girl who is raped. Then again, it's about so much more than that. It's about the effects of rape on not just the victim but on family...
This book packs a powerful punch for being just 126 pages. It’s a tough subject, but one that I think is important for everyone to know about. If you don’t know someone who is the victim of rape, then you are lucky. Or maybe you just don’t know.I was surprised at the end of this book to find out tha...
I've seen a lot of great buzz about this novel but I was disappointed. Valerie's emotional pain as a rape victim rings true enough, but the Wesley and Sandrina characters seem contrived. The principal insisting Valerie meet with Adam seems implausible as does her friend Mimi's complete abandoning of...
I can't imagine how much courage it must have taken to write this novel, which is loosely based on the author's own experience as a rape survivor. Not an easy read, but it is an important book--one all teens could benefit from reading.
3.5 stars.I finished it in just 2hours. It's a fast read book since it only has 129 pages. And it's too short to my liking. I mean, the idea is good. But I wish Alina Klein elaborated more. Cause it's like the author's cramming it all up in a 100page something book. I thought that there're more page...
I had a lot of hope for this book. It could have been amazing, but it was too short and felt rushed at the end. I still give it 3 stars because the story was good, I just wanted more.
Okay this is going to be a really difficult review to write. Not because I didn't like the book, because I did, but it's a very tough issue to tackle and being that I have never been in the situation I didn't know what to think about a lot of it. I kept feeling like if I was in the situation I would...
