angelareads's review

There was a little bit too much sexual content in relation to a relatively young girl for the sake of being "real" or "gritty" for me. Also I started the book yesterday and today I forgot that I was reading it until I saw it sitting on my table. Off putting + forgettable =DNF

FMC is sexually assaulted by having her mind hacked into and being forced to a sexual act she didn't consent to.
