A heavy read that addresses the topic of sexual assault with incredible nuance and tact. An important read - honestly it felt like Speak but for a new generation. I greatly enjoyed and would recommend.

There is a nonbinary character who says they want to go by they/them but the story and only character they came out to refer to them as she/her, could be because they said "she/her works for now" or could be lazy writing, not entirely sure
