A review by divinefolly
Raw Blue by Kirsty Eagar
4.0
I adored this book and I adored it for its simplicity. It's a story about a girl - Clary - just trying to live her life after being raped about a year ago.
I like that this isn't a story about snapping out of your depression/anger and becoming the old you, because the "old you" no longer exists. It's more about coming to terms with who you are now (and not with the magical powers of some dude's penis). It's about finding strength and trust in good friendships in order to fight for yourself.
It's an added bonus that the writing is SUPER Australian. I'm talking "faaarks" and "mates" **heart eyes**
It's an extra added bonus that Kirsty is a beautiful human bean :D
