The truth is that Ari was raped. Because of her selective mutism she's unable to speak about what happened and tries to downplay to herself what Luis did. But a sympathetic voice reaches out to her on social media. It's Shawni, Luis' ex-girlfriend. She and several others have started the Luis Ortega Survival Club because they too were his victims, and Shawni invites Ari to join them and get revenge against Luis. Ari isn't sure she wants to be a part of it. Her autism, mutism and depression further complicate how she deals with the rape. Time and patience from her new friends eventually give Ari the courage to stand up and reveal Luis for his actions. A layered story of intersections that make this a survivor story with extra depth. ( ) Loved this! Another favorite of 2023! Sonora is becoming an auto-buy author for me, love her writing. Re-read/listen to the audiobook of this one again for our bookclub discussion in Diversity is Lit. Here's my in-depth thoughts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2HHr5zKa-M Really good, about a group of teens who gather together to support each other and to take revenge on a popular boy who is a gaslighting, abusive sexual predator at their school, but in doing so must deal with the real ramifications of what he has done to them. A page turner. Sonora Reyes keeps hitting it out of the park and is clearly an author to watch! Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
"Ariana Ruiz wants to be noticed. But as an autistic girl who never talks, she goes largely ignored by her peers--despite her bold fashion choices. So when cute, popular Luis starts to pay attention to her, Ari finally feels seen. Luis's attention soon turns to something more, and they have sex at a party--while Ari didn't say no, she definitely didn't say yes. Before she has a chance to process what happened and decide if she even has the right to be mad at Luis, the rumor mill begins churning--thanks, she's sure, to Luis's ex-girlfriend, Shawni. Boys at school now see Ari as an easy target, someone who won't say no. Then Ari finds a mysterious note in her locker that eventually leads her to a group of students determined to expose Luis for the predator he is. To her surprise, she finds genuine friendship among the group, including her growing feelings for the very last girl she expected to fall for. But in order to take Luis down, she'll have to come to terms with the truth of what he did to her that night--and risk everything to see justice done."--Provided by publisher.
