As I kept on reading this book, the more interested I had gotten. At the beginning, I thought it would be about a girl and her life problems, but as I got later on into the book, I found out that she, Melinda, was raped. I also judged her in a "bad way" because she was too quiet and if I went through that, I would have been very open about the whole situation. After the party, she was too afraid to tell anybody, and I would feel that same way too, walking home alone, just being raped by a guy. Then when she started to go to school, freshman year, her closest friends wouldn't talk to her, because after the incident with him, she called the police, but didn't say anything into the receiver.
But at the end of this book, the guy who raped her, was really a senior at her school, named Andy Evans. But when her former ex-best fiend rachell starts to date him, she finally has the guts to tell her about that day. When she finally believed her, she ditched him at the senior prom. During the last few weeks of school, Andy Evans had come into her little comfort place at school, and physically /sexually assaulted her, but she fought back and found her voice. It would have been very hard to tell an ex-best friend about him. This book was very fascinating and I could relate to some her problems during her school time.
