My life just got put on hold today because I opened this novel. There was so much to love and to hate within this story, the reality of the situation is that what occurred within these pages felt real. I felt that perhaps the timeframe was rushed in sections but then “weeks” and “months” in a novel ...

honestly, i don't know where to start with this book. i want to say that i loved it and thought it was powerful and important but... that's just not how i felt about it. i'm the kind of person that the most important part of a book for me will always be the characters, particularly the main characte...

Another book I decided to pick up from my tbr pile because I remember how emotional it would be. Other bloggers that have read it, said it was good and truthful. After I read it, I have to say that they were right. Plot: This is about a girl who meets a guy in a chatroom. He manipulates her and ge...

See more of my reviews on The YA Kitten, my shiny new home! Ew ew ew ew ew ew ew. This is the kind of book so gross that you need a shower after finishing it. Heck, you might need thorough showers while reading it alongside your usual showers in hopes of feeling clean again. Want to Go Private? ca...

I really really enjoyed this book and will be keeping it around so that I can have my future kids read this. Not only was this a good read but this was really informational on the process of how internet relationships work and how the teenager side of this relationship hit home for me and it was spo...

Survivors of abuse and/or assault might want to avoid this one as it could trigger flashbacks or memories.While there were patches of writing that didn't work for me (dialogue, mostly), ultimately it's a frightening and all too real story of internet predators. Definitely for mature readers, but an ...

I completely connected with the main character of Want to go Private? Abby is such a smart girl, and doesn't have the confidence or the popularity. She is pretty and smart, but she doesn't see herself that way. I have always had self esteem problems and I saw so much of myself in her. So when a guy,...

I bought Want to Go Private based on a review that I read by Lori at Pure Imagination, but also because it covers a subject matter that actually rings true with me. I was a regular user of chat rooms for nearly ten years, and I even met (and eventually moved across the world to be with) my current ...

A book like this really freaks me out. Not because of the subject but because of the reality of it. Things like WTGP really, truly happen. When I was 14 there was no worry about online predators. Commodore-64 was known for Logo and Oregon Trail, not chat rooms and Facebook. This day and age anyone c...
