This book was really easy to read. So approachable. It has some very important messages. It also fails in a key place. 

There is a character that thinks not wanting to face your attacker and take them down is weak. And she isn't challenged for that belief. She is called a bitch for other things. She is never explicitly called out for that wrongheaded belief. 

Ultimately this book was just okay. I really loved the writing style though. Trigger Warning for attempted rape.
