Mehso-so

I just found this to be an okay book. Wasn't a lot of substance in it.

‘Oppression doesn‘t spread through men with guns, or bombs on trains. Oppression spreads when women like you tell their daughters to marry a certain man, or wear a certain dress or work a certain job. ‘

I really enjoyed this book! It was one that I happened across at my local library and I‘m so glad I gave it a chance. I discovered there is a second book in the series and I‘m really excited to read it! I hope there will be many more books in the series because I really enjoyed the character of Zara! 🌟🌟🌟🌟!

Take it Back grabbed my attention from the first page. I was trying to figure out what actually happened. I loved how Zara would do anything to get justice for Jodie. The ending was crazy. I loved how Abdullah made me question everything throughout the book.

Thank you St. Martin‘s Press/Macmillan Publishers for Take it Back.

Who can you believe?

Four boys accused of rape and put on trial and stories that don‘t match Jodie's the victim.

There are some sensitive and cruel situations, but this thriller has a non-stop pulse to it.

TAKE IT BACK is a very powerful, thoughtful book that will stay with you. 5/5

This was sort of haunting. A disabled girl accuses 4 Muslim boys of rape. Someone is lying and you sort of don't want it to be any of them. This sucked me right in.

Woohoo 🙌🏻 I read an entire book today!!! I literally couldn‘t put this legal thriller down. A white girl with severe facial deformities accuses 4 popular Muslim classmates of gang-rape. Her social advocate is a Muslim woman. It‘s a classic case of He Said/ She Said. Who will a jury and a torn community believe? #NetGalley #ARC #DoubleSpin

MsMelissa I loved this one! She has a new book coming out in November that I can‘t wait to read 😊 3y
Freespirit Sounds like I need to stack it! 3y
Cinfhen Ohhhh, I‘m definitely going to read her next book too @Book_Fiend_Melissa This was a really satisfying courtroom thriller/ legal drama @Freespirit 3y

This was a powerful read. It deals with some very serious issues. The story itself was interesting and built well with some clever twists along the way. The ending was unexpected but added another depth to the story. One last twist to finish the story. This deals with some very dark themes and there's quite a lot of bad language. 3*

This one was somewhere between a so-so and a pick for me. Some aspects were really compelling but I did have a couple of problems with others. Overall though, worth the read! Full review is up on my blog now!
