A review by kylajaynebooks
The Astonishing Color of After by Emily X.R. Pan

Did not finish book.
I refuse to read any more about this teenage girl hating herself for wanting to spend time with her boyfriend. I also refuse to sit here and read about how she's hating herself for feeling "horny" or that she has to act upon the same urges as the boys do. Honey, your mom just committed suicide; I don't think it was because you were going through puberty. I only got 10 pages in so maybe I didn't give it enough of a chance but my immediate reaction to this book was noooooot great.
