The rape scens aren't shown, but the character's give details and it can be very disturbing. Also, the way it shows how the media/the public in large react to a female serial rapist is also very very upsetting. However, that's the point of the book but be aware. It's very upsetting.acadiantoller's review

3.5
it was difficult to read. particularly the transcript of the talkshow. i was shaking and had to walk away for a couple if hours before continuing the book.
last month, a horrific incident happened in my city. more so, because in some ways it is connected to me and people like me as a collective. and it hurts to see the conversations & events that happened in real life and HAVE been happening now be so so so universal.
this was a very well written depiction of rape culture that resides in society even today and in many ways, an extremely difficult book to digest. one of my only complaints though would be the lack of voice of the trans man who was also a victim in the book. it just didn't seem fair that the voice of a trans person is the only one that apparently didn't need to be heard.
i read this in physical form as well as in audio and the cast of voice actors actually did a wonderful job. a huge hats off to them. specifically to the voice of jamar sands & ezra fisher. impeccable voice acting on their parts.
all in all, would recommend even if i had a few complaints.
