~*Someone I Used to Know*~

Thank you to netgalley and the publisher of this book Sourcebooks Fire for an advance copy of the book for an honest review. "Someone I Used to Know" by Patty Blount is not just a wonderfully written novel but a very important one. As a survivor myself I have not read a book that is as accurate as this novel is. Ashley is a fourteen year old excited to start off her Freshman year, not just because she wants to be in highschool but because she wants to be able to bond with her brother Derek. Derek is a football player who is tired of his baby sister and has been for a long time. The were once really close but not so much now. One day a stupid, dangerous game that the football team loves to play ruins not only the relationship between the brother and sister but it also changes Ashley's life.  The Bengals (the high school football team) participate in a scavenger hunt that terrorizes the girls in school. The boys get points for the various sexual activities they complete...

Hi! You can call me  Persephone & welcome to my little corner of the internet where we can discuss two of my very favorite things, books & make up! I have a hard time finding a genre of books that I do not enjoy. My love of make up has begun to rival my love of books and my collections of both are growing fast! I am a proud net-galley reader & I love physical,audio and e-books. At the moment I read more e-books because I have run out of room  store my physical books! I live in Michigan with my sweetie & my fur babies, two kitties (Boo and Frostbite)and Gigi the cutest Jackabee to ever exist on the planet. My other loves? Autumn,Halloween movies new and old and TV.  Come & Join me & hopefully we can become friends! A book is a gift you can open again and again. ~*Garrison Keillor
