Going Too Far
I’ve come cross this book a few times in my search for more angst and while I added it to my “interest” list, I hesitated mostly because it was YA. What? I know right?! I’ve read plenty of YA, so what made this one different? The YA that I usually gravitate to is “older YA”. College aged, 18 or over… you know the drill. The fact that the heroine in the book was only seventeen, had me questioning the potential intensity (or possible lack thereof). Considering a YA author’s delicate (albeit appropriate) approach to realism without extreme detail, I wasn’t sure if this would hold my attention.
