Initial reaction: No, just no. If you're looking for a book that properly deals with teenage pregnancy and the options available for teens as well as treating the matter with sensitivity and coming to terms, I'd recommend [b:Me, Him, Them, & It|12439950|Me, Him, Them, & It|Caela Carter|http://d202...
For some reason, I'm really big on books about teens seriously screwing up. I don't know why but I really like to read about teens making dumbass decisions. So when I saw SCREWED on NetGalley, I was pretty happy. Sadly, it didn't work out for me.SCREWED was about Grace, the daughter of two religious...
Thank you NetGalley for providing me with an ARC of this book.Oh man, I have to like … actually take a second to mentally prepare myself to write this review.To put it in a nutshell: I thought this book was poorly written, highly unrealistic, and sexist. I will illustrate why, but … that's all you r...
Actual rating: 4.5(This review was originally posted at My Library in the Making.)Starting a book with the prose version of the "How can you call it murder if it doesn't even have a heartbeat yet?" debate might make it boring for some people, but this certainly wasn't the case for me. That argument ...
I'm sorry, but this book isn't for me. It's not taking itself seriously, especially with such a complex subject matter (teen pregnancy). The character gets pregnant and in the first 5 pages she gets asked, "Was the other head a turtleneck or a crewneck?" WHAT THE FLYING FUCK? And trust me, there are...
This is kind of difficult. I'm torn between a great story and bad writing.The first thing I noticed, was how bad the writing was. I don't mind that it's told in third person, but when the author refers to every female character as "she" and every male character as "he", it gets hard. I mean, whom is...
**[Received an ARC through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review - thank you very much!]**In general, I have to say that I did enjoy this book. I have read some reviews claiming that this book wasn't good at all or complaining about a lot of things I didn't think were that annoying.(Warning, th...
please keep in mind that I don't usually like contemporaries. 3.5 is a pretty big deal for me for a contemp. I enjoyed this story and will share full review soon !
It could never happen to me. It is the famous last words. I mean, it is like cancer, teenage pregnancy. You know people it has happened to, and with head knowledge, you know it can happen to you. But at that age, we think we are invincible really, and I remember thinking that it would never actually...
ARC provided by NetGalley on behalf of the publishers F+W/Adams Media & Merit Pressafter stupidly giving up her virginity to the hottest guy at school, Grace finds herself pregnant, kicked out of home, completely disowned by her super religious parents, and the laughing stock of the entire school. L...
