Girls Burn Brighter by Shobha Rao
2.0

This book was a tough read for me and I almost put it down for good a handful of times. I couldn’t even get thru the final scene with one of the main characters. To quote another readers review….it’s basically torture porn. A lot of the rape scenes felt gratuitous and unnecessary and simply inserted for shock value. This book hurt my soul in such a way that I wish I hadn’t read it.
