Girls Like Us by Gail Giles
3.0
I liked this book more than I thought I would. Probably a 3.5. I think they could have done without the judge’s wife scene at the end.
This book surprised me because I wasn’t sure what to expect. I wish the author would have given some background information - why she wanted to write a book like this, what research she conducted to get the characters right, etc. I wonder what the statistics are (if there are any) about intellectually disabled persons and sexual assault. It’s a terrifying and heartbreaking thought.
Glad I listened to this- the narrator was good although Texans don’t talk like that. That’s Georgia.
