A compelling read…
Captivating prose and poignant emotions illuminate Ori’s sharp debut about a sexual-attack victim’s harrowing emotional journey. When 16-year-old Hannah decides to go to a house party to protect her best friend, she has no idea her life would unravel in a worst possible way. Drugged and raped at the party by a stranger, Hannah finds herself burdened with guilt as depression and fear sets in. But she must find the courage to stand up for herself or risk losing her own sanity. Ori sensitively portrays a spiral of bullying that a teenager has to face as a victim of sexual attack, skillfully depicting the unforgiving mind-set of high schoolers. Hannah’s repressed rage and relentless agony is portrayed without any melodrama, strengthening the impact of her riveting story as the survivor of a sexual attack. A powerful YA book that deserves to be placed at school and library shelves.
