camfred 's review for:

The Female of the Species by Mindy McGinnis
4.0

I feel like this book scratched the surface of a lot of issues and would have like to see it go deeper. Very gritty, difficult read. I loved the character development, though I think the author really missed an opportunity to explore pressures on teenage boys via the relationship of Jack and Branley. If you are ok with gritty, language, and extremely difficult subject matter, this is your book.
