A review by elothwen
On the Subject of Unmentionable Things by Julia Walton
2.0
Just too silly and unrealistic. I know it's YA; I hate YA. I read this for a book club I'm joining.
2. The "love triangle". Barf
3. Guys in high school don't act like that
4. Girls in high school do kind of act like that to be honest
5. i'M jUsT aS bAd As ThE ViLlIaN. No, you should expose her abortion. It's about being a hypocrite not about having the abortion itself.
6. The parents were such cardboard cutout nobodies omg. I liked the mom's miscarriage story at least
7. Girl gets haircut and takes braces off and becomes pretty aww <3
8. Epilogue about having sex...alright
9. The tweets SHUT UPPP so again, cartoonish and again, silly.
10. I probably have more to say but I guess I'll be discussing this on the 21st, so I'll leave it for then and whatever ideas the others' spark in my mind. I just don't think contemporary YA fiction is deep enough or well-written enough to warrant a legit review from me personally
