Dangerous Play by Emma Kress
4.5
(Disclaimer: I received this book from Netgalley. This has not impacted my review which is unbiased and honest.)
Dangerous Play delivers an atmosphere of friendship and survival. Of simmering rage, sexism that protects perpetrators, and how society encourages silence. I knew that stories like this hit me differently emotionally, and while I was prepared, the rage that boils to the surface always somehow surprises me. How society forces us into this box of not saying something because of the repercussions, consequences for our future, and how it reinforces itself.
