Exit, Pursued by a Bear by E.K. Johnston

5.0

I love YA. Oftentimes I am disappointed by how the genre is romance-centered. This novel gives us all the ingredients for a stereotypical YA romance: popular head cheerleader with a boyfriend about to start her Senior year in high school. However, just before school starts, she is slipped a roofie and raped. In one moment her entire future changes. What follows is a realistic portrayal of the conflicts she faces along the way, but also the support team that helps her come to terms with what happens.
