Finished this last night for #thebreakfastbookclub #groupa! @erinreads I didn‘t realize this was your original pick before I packaged it up to be sent to you tomorrow! Good pick! I don‘t think the British humor fit in with the American high school setting but otherwise a solid book!

Hell yeah!
I wanna go slap a "nice guy in the friend zone" and burn down something created by sexist white man.

But legit this is a HILARIOUS, honest and modern plot about a girl getting slut shamed for having a vagina and using it. For reals, I don't like contemporaries but this has a really satisfying ending...and I wanna go burn down the patriarchy now.

THE FRIEND ZONE ISNT THE WORST PLACE YOU COULD'VE ENDED UP! WE DONT OWE YOU SHIT!

BethM Your review makes me want to try it. 5y

I think I‘ve posted this book before, on a similar theme. This is about mistakes made on social media and I‘m just so glad I grew up before all of that - in my opinion it‘s #toomuchtooyoung.

*Little Angels, a ‘longhaired‘ rock band, were formed in 1984 in Scarborough on the east coast of Yorkshire. They supported Van Halen and Bon Jovi on tour*

Hooked_on_books Oh my god, I‘m SO glad I grew up before social media. I can‘t even imagine being a teenager in that mine field. 5y

Okay let's just get this out in the open:
1. the US cover looks like a zipper vagina while the UK got a gorgeous design.
2. *gasp* omg Samm is voluntarily reading a contemporary?!

Well my friend DMed me and told me someone had basically written a more sexually promiscuous version of me (sarcasm and anti-Trump sentiment included). I'm only 100 pages in and we've already taken two shots at POTUS Agent Orange.

JanuarieTimewalker13 I had to go to book depository to check out British cover...YES, much nicer!! Sounds like a great read! 5y
Megabooks That‘s as bad as the cover of 5y
bookmom921 Oh...it looked like a mouth to me 🤷‍♀️ 5y

This book just goes to show how social media can ruin a persons life when the people you think you can trust can't be trusted. When compromising pictures of Izzy shows up on a website slut shaming her, her who life changes. My heart broke for Izzy and women in today's world who this happens too. It is not okay at all. We shouldn't have to worry about this at all!

This is what #modernlove means to me; it‘s about the chaos and recriminations that ensue when someone posts a compromising photo on social media.

I‘m just glad I did my growing up before the internet!

Love the narrator‘s unique voice and the way slut shaming, gender double standards, revenge porn, and bullying are handled in this book! @chelreads I hope this has arrived & that you enjoy it! #TheBreakfastBookClub

This is one time when you *should* judge a book by its cover. This is an explosive, colourful, fast-paced (and sweary) look at what happens to a teenage girl when a nude photo she sent to a boy goes viral.

My only issue would be that it felt a bit rushed at the end and I would have liked a bit more after the MC found out who had started it all and how that affected them and their friends. (Being cryptic as trying not to drop a spoiler!)
