Asking for it - Louise O’neill

Rating-☘️☘️☘️☘️/☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️(4.5/5)

read: april 24, 2020

i read via: audio

(spoilers / tw / cw/sexual assult)

This story was a little difficult for me to read but it was life changing.

I think the execution and story telling was very captivating. At the beginning i kind of disliked emma, but that doesnt mean she deseved that happened to her. You can be a bitch but nothing like this is ever deserved.

Emma isnt a character - She represents so many women and girls who have experienced sexual violence. This was a very important read to understand the horrors far too many people go through.

All in all, a great book that more people should read.
