ergaich's review against another edition
1.0
This book could have been a really fun read, but every time I found myself starting to enjoy it again, something disturbing would happen. <spolier> The entire plot point of Charlotte falling in love with a grown man and getting so angry that he would not love her back that she FRAMED HIM is exactly what fuels the idea that young girls are crazy and “asking for it.” And to have Briony orchestrate Charlottes rape was absolutely unnecessary and straight up disturbing.</spolier> The book would have been complete and good without those two points so I fail to see how they compel the story.
I would heavily NOT recommend this to any self respecting feminist.

I enjoyed this book, I thought it was very fun. It was a fairly easy read, although there's discussion of some difficult topics. I intend to continue reading this series and see where things go.
