A compelling look at r*pe culture within an elite boarding school. I particularly liked that The four main characters were great, although Javi and Aileen definitely could have been more developed. I also like that it ended quite messily, without a perfect conclusion, and with the acceptance that, within r*pe culture, the right people don't always win!
I think at the moment there are so many YA books out there about r*pe culture and feminism that it's hard to really excel in the genre, and for me this wasn't a stand out. However it was good in it's own right.
