I enjoyed it, but it dragged on for a bit too long. I don’t even want to know how many times the word “cried” was used in this book, but it’s definitely too many times. 

It was an easy and fun read that made me laugh and cry. I couldn’t lay it down, even though most of the story was pretty predictable. I felt engaged and really wanted to know how Amelie would end up at the end.

I sobbed reading this book. The ending was perfect and as I was reading I felt so proud of Amelie.

I don't even have words. This book tore my soul into pieces. It was so uncomfortable to read and I got so angry sometimes but it is so, so important that young people, especially girls, read this so that they can understand. It's a commentary on so many things, and it's such a heartbreaking story but so many aspects of it are also true in a way. Even though this is a fictional story, things that happen in this book do happen, and it's devastating.
