saphirablue 's review for:
Tribute
by Lisa Henry
While I liked some things in the book I didn't like some others.
My main 'hmmm' with the book is that apparently torturing a Tribute is horrible, considered as wrong and makes them worry how other countries react to them but raping Tributes is okay? Yeah, that doesn't compute for me.
I hoped for some mention that rape isn't okay, that it takes time to recover from rape (especially since in Lisa Henry's book "The Island" it was mentioned and shown and I therefore went into this book expecting it here too) but there was nothing. :( And that is really disappointing especially since the aftermath of the torture showed it. :(
