Reading Level: Young Adult(4 out of 5)
When your sister is raped I don't think you are supposed to all for her rapist's sister. But that is what happens in this book. While Ms. Downham could have made it a tragedy like Romeo and Juliet she ended it on a slightly upbeat note.
Mikey's sister Karyn says she is raped by Tom. Mikey wants to take revenge but gets side tracked by Tom's sister Ellie. Ellie doesn't know Mikey is Karyn's brother so Mikey decides to try and get information out of Ellie. When Ellie finds out who Mikey is she tries to get information out of Mikey. But while doing this they genuinely like each other. Is Karyn telling the truth or is Tom? With something like this between them do they really have a chance at being together?
This was a good read. When should you stop being loyal to family and start being loyal to yourself? Do you have the courage to tell the truth even if it is going to tear your family apart?
