I saw a lot of reviews that were like EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS BOOK and they activated a defiant little button in my brain that was like “don't tell me what to do.” Like I read the Buzzfeed thing and I'm already like...opposed to rape, so what's here for me

anyway it is really great though, really beautiful writing with humor throughout to keep it from being totally overwhelming (although like, rape culture is still overwhelming and infuriating). An emotional read but a valuable one–I think it would be very powerful for teen boys in particular to read and engage with this content.
