Ripped from the Headlines

Sadly Tease, though fiction, is very real.  It's one of those ripped from the headlines kind of deals. And while some people seem to have said that they didn't like it because there was slut-shaming and the main character didn't take responsibility...well, I think that was the point!  I mean, I don't think Amanda Maciel was writing this to show that the main character and real-life people who do what the main character did SHOULDN'T have responsibility-- I think she is point out that sometimes they don't and what their thought process is.  I mean...it just seemed really weird to me that people would criticize the book for this reason.  So weird.  In any case, I really liked this book a great deal.  It mean, it was painful and sad.  But it was honest and real.  And yeah, it was really good.
