kimbongiorno 's review for:
Dark Room Etiquette
by Robin Roe
A true ride for the reader that is moving, gripping and eye-opening.
We are in the main character's head as he is swooped up in his life as a privileged, popular, shallow teen who feels the pressure to keep the status quo (and makes us think, "WHEW what a jerk" more than once), gets kidnapped, realizes how he might survive this experience, and the fallout from there.
Fascinating and heartbreaking and thought-provoking.
Note: This book deals with trauma and crimes against youth in a way that never felt contrived or gratuitous. Nothing in this book was triggering for me, which was absolutely more about how the author wrote the content than the content, itself. I applaud her for this.
