This is a powerful, diverse read about rape, rape culture, feminism, and girl power. I liked all three of the protagonists, especially Rosina and Erin. Rosina is Mexican and sapphic, Erin has Asperger’s, and Grace is fat and Christian. Although they’re the main characters, this novel focuses on girls throughout their school and town. I also liked the complexities of each relationship, platonic and familial, even romantic. I don’t have much to say about this novel, but I admired that the author didn’t shy away from tough topics. It’s full of discussions that are incredibly relevant to our modern society, and ultimately everything works out.

This review was lowkey terrible, but to sum it up, I enjoyed this book and definitely recommend it if you believe you can handle the content.
