[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really liked Pineapple Street and watched Fleishman and enjoyed the show but didn't read the book. I also read [b]When We Were Bright and Beautiful and really liked it until the turn it took at the end and then I hated it[/b], so just a heads up if that comes up in your searches because I thought it was going to be like Pineapple Street. [/quote] Agree completely about When We Were Bright and Beautiful. And I've read several books this year that include this same X (not going to spoil it) that it felt gimmicky and cheap to me, like it's a hot thing in publishing. [/quote] SPOILER Can someone reveal X ? I’d love to know if this book/X, is a hard pass for me? [/quote] It's an uncomfortable book, but I couldn't put it down. It's a dirty, vile, hate read. Trigger warnings for - rape, not really a spoiler, as a rape trial is the main theme of the book (aka Brock Turner) Spoiler ahead (though many could see this coming, or guessed it early on) --- sexual grooming/molestation/rape of a child [/quote] This is the “hot thing in publishing” that pp mentioned?[/quote]
