Description

Printz Honor Book, 2017

Emma O'Donovan is 18, beautiful, and fearless. It's the beginning of summer in a quiet Irish town and, tonight, she and her friends have dressed to impress. Everyone is at the party, and all eyes are on Emma.

The next morning, Emma's parents discover her collapsed on the doorstop of their home, unconscious. She is disheveled, bleeding, and disoriented, looking as if she had been dumped there.

To her distress, Emma can't remember what happened the night before. All she knows is that none of her friends will respond to her texts. At school, people turn away from her and whisper under their breath. Her mind may be a blank as far as the events of the previous evening, but someone has posted photos of it on Facebook under a fake account, "Easy Emma" - photos she will never be able to forget.

As the photos go viral and a criminal investigation is launched, the community is thrown into tumult. The media descends, neighbors choose sides, and people from all over the world want to talk about her story. Everyone has something to say about Emma.

Contains mature themes.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"O'Neill's powerful novel digs into deep questions about rape culture that are difficult to listen to but essential to consider." ( School Library Journal, starred review)

Disappointing Ending.

Heartbreaking story. I didn’t expect a happy ending but also didn’t expect a random one.

Well written and provokes self reflection

As a society we love to believe that we are progressive and forward thinking, but this story shows how far we still have to go. O’Neill writes from the perspective of someone that is easy not to like - the main character is stuck up and thinks so much of herself. As the story progresses the main character is subjected to a horrendous assault that ruins her life. I found myself so vexed for this girl. I was willing her not to let the assault define her, and return to being the girl that believes in herself (not stuck up) and confident (not thinks so much of herself). I love a book that can make me reconsider my perspective.
