A review by karapaes
Last Woman Standing by Amy Gentry

3.0

This book was full of surprises that I never saw coming and I enjoyed almost every single one of them! I loved the bond Dana and Amanda formed, and loved watching it fall apart only to have a mutual respect show through in the end. I was extremely happy with how Jason ended but disappointed in the way Carl was able to come out on top. However, I do think it showed an extremely important reality that there will always be another abuser or harasser. The only issue I had was that Dana didn't know who her rapist was until years later even though it was someone that she was so familiar with. I just found it very difficult to believe due to the way in which the rape was described and they way she came to realize who her rapist truly was. Besides that, I really enjoyed the story and the characters throughout and will definitely recommend this thought-provoking read.
