Take It Back by Kia Abdullah
4.0

Jodie is a white girl with a deformed face. She accuses 4 Muslim boys of rape. The first chapter is very hard to read as it describes the rape. Then most of the book is the trail.

This was a hard book to read at most times. You feel so bad for Jodie. You feel that the 4 boys are getting away with things because of how well they represent themselves in court, but you also get to see how they talk amongst themselves.

Culture is a big part of this book. I hate that people lump one type of people as the same type of people. But everyone even within a class system is different. Not all stay true to the basis of their class.

The ending take you through a few twists and you stay to doubt what you know and then it gets twists again. This was a very good book even with the subject matter!
