katerdate's review against another edition
I’m so sick of men thinking that they can use rape (against women) as a one off plot device. I was compelled by the story but the authors problematic, show-off, pretensions, I’m not like other girls personality was showing.

mittymyers's review against another edition
This book truely felt like a white man’s attempt to write ~cool teen fiction~. I tried to rough it out and I could not. And I don’t give in easily. I saw a review that called Mim a cardboard cutout to be a speaker for the author’s philosophy and snark, and I agree. There is no emotional connection, just a girl going through trauma, but she’s too quirky for it to effect her, and unfortunately you too.

i always come back to this book for comfort. mim was such a dedicated character and no matter her flaws, its hard not to like her. i think my favorite part was the exploration into her relationship with her mom and step-mom. the whole book it was believed that her step-mom was a bad person, and in a way she may have been, but she cared for mim. she wanted to love and protect her from everything, and the fact that shes the one that came to get mim in the end is what really got me. also the fact that mim told her about her eye, the thing she had never told to anyone before. and the plot twist made me want to throw up btw.
