pickThis book definitely isn't an easy read. It's very upsetting much of the time. It tells the story from an 18 year old boy's point of view, looking back on his molestation by a female teacher when he was 12. I found it to be a very unique and important story.
pickPicked this up cause it was on a creepy reads list and definitely agree with that. Some problems with the miraculous change in attitude but decent book/writing.
I've always loved books that push the envelope. We'll see how this goes.
pickI worried this book would be lurid or uncomfortably explicit. It was not. It was a very nuanced look at something, culturally, we consider very straight forward: male teenage sexuality.
Too often, our culture treats the topic as black and white. Boys want sex. Sex is good. But that mentality is damaging, especially in cases of abuse. I thought this book handled that very well.
