'A soul-shattering novel that will leave your emotions raw. This story will haunt me forever. Everyone should read it' Guardian

In a small town where everyone knows everyone, Emma O'Donovan is different. She is the special one - beautiful, popular, powerful. And she works hard to keep it that way.

Until that night . . .

Now, she's an embarrassment. Now, she's just a slut. Now, she is nothing.

And those pictures - those pictures that everyone has seen - mean she can never forget.

For fans of Caitlin Moran, Marian Keyes and Jodi Picoult.

BOOK OF THE YEAR AT THE IRISH BOOK AWARDS 2015. The award-winning, bestselling novel about the life-shattering impact of sexual assault, rape and how victims are treated.

'Riveting and essential'
Brilliant, harrowing
A brutal and shocking novel that strikes to the heart of the current debates around consent
'Establishes Louise O'Neill as a literary tour de force'
A difficult, confronting and vital read
Heartbreakingly accurate . . . handled with both sensitivity and unflinching honesty. A compelling and brave story that deserves to be read by all
A stunning portrait of a girl, a family and a town in trouble
A brutal, unflinching look at the culture of slut-shaming and trial by social media. It broke my heart.
A brave and important book about rape culture, sexism and victim-blaming in modern society.
Bold, brave . . . and brutal
O'Neill has a keen ear for the catty argot of teenage girls and her writing is razor sharp . . . unsparing and unsentimental
A razor-sharp look at gender issues - Glasgow Herald
Riveting . . . a timely, gripping and vital novel.
A nuanced and insightful commentary on the intricacies of teenage female friendship and the internal and external pressures that young women face as they reach adulthood
Blistering, unapologetic and vitally important (Anna James)
This unflinching, timely novel asks important questions about rape culture, sexism and social media abuse, tackling taboo themes with subtlety and sensitivity (Anita Sethi)

Very hard book, emotionally draining, but it should be read in schools. Captures trauma in a way I didn’t think was possible.

Heartbreaking

Slow to start but such an incredible read/listen, the way Louise writes to make you feel deeply for this character is incredible, a book every young woman needs to read.

Could have listened to 10 more chapters

Brilliant book which will make you uncomfortable, Which is a good thing. I'm the generation that was told not to put yourself in that siituation, that blamed the victim. I want better for my daughters, yet we have such a long way to go. The ending is devastating, incomplete, the ends aren't neatly tied. Yet it is perfect. A must read. (PS, i rarely give 5 stars)

Haunting

It's a heavy listen. Read brilliantly but a very horrible sad subject. Not a feel good book. But maybe someone may get some solace in it

Harrowing
